For the first time ever - and for about $300 or more - students soon can sport a class ring officially rec ognized by the university. And unlike past class rings, buy ers must have been University of Nebraska-Lincoln students - for at least 50 credit hours. “We think the official class ring will have special meaning to students and alumni because the design will never change,” said Ed Paquette, executive director of the Nebraska Alumni Association. The ring, which features a gold “N” encrusted on a scarlet-colored stone, is being offered by the alumni association as an easily recognizable symbol of a UNL graduate, said Shelley Zaborowski, director of stu dent programs and reunions for the association. The university seal sits on the ring’s right flank, with the Love Library cupola on the left flank. Golden com stalks wave in the back ground of each side of the ring. “We wanted to include some of the most easily recognizable symbols on campus,” said Andrea Cranford, spokeswoman for the association. The ring was designed by a com mittee of students last fall in cooper ation with the association. Students on the committee included Curt Ruwe, president of the 66 We think the official class ring will have special meaning. ...” Ed Paquette Nebraska Alumni Association Association of Students of the University of Nebraska; Ben Wallace, Residence Hall Association president; and representatives from the Afrikan People’s Union, the Honors Program, the Interfratemity Council, the Mexican American Students Association and the University of Nebraska Inter-Tribal Exchange. Students’ initials and graduation dates will be engraved on the under siae oi eacn ring, along witn the logo of the alumni association. Students can customize their ring by choosing yellow or white gold in either 10- or 14-karat styles. The prices range from $295 to $425. Eligible students can order the new class ring at the Wick Alumni Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today and Wednesday. Alumni can pur chase a ring this summer. The rings then will be presented by Paquette at a special reception at 4 p.m. April 28. “It is the one common bond,” Paquette said, “between those who will graduate this year and in years to come.” I Flexible Scheduling || Ideal for Students Many exciting full-time and part-time positions available.
