Congrats to you both. Myself and wife each have one.
They were like $850 when I got mine so jealous of the $32.50 poster.

Congratulations! That experience was one of the proudest moments of my life. Occasionally, in the first few years after graduation, I’d wake up in a cold sweat from a dream that I was still in school only to toggle my ring finger, regain calm, and drift back off after realizing it was there.

I really love the fact that even though so much has changed in the last 25-30 years, that at it's core, nothing has really changed at all, that Clemson is same school today that is was when I attended!

The rings come in a nice wooden ring box with the Clemson Alumni Association logo carved into the top and on the bottom it reads 'Crafted in Oconee County, SC from recycled wood of a Clemson tree.

Congratulations! Mine was made by Jostens...........

and got it when it arrived at the old bookstore during summer school in 1976. There was no organized ring ceremony back then like there is now.
Cost around $100 if I remember right.
Since they're so expensive now, I wonder percentage of students get them anymore?

Josten’s has replaced my stone twice when it was chipped.

If today’s grads can’t afford it, I hope they place it on the priority list for acquisition when their income grows. Outside of my family, mine is my most prized possession.
