Hardin-Simmons University 2018-2019
Ring. This Ring becomes available during the semester of a
student’s scheduled graduation. August graduates are
included in the Spring ordering process and Presentation
Ceremony.
To receive your Official HSU Ring, students must first be sized
early in the appropriate semester (several days and times will
be made available).
To place an order, students must have their completed
diploma card on file with the Registrar’s Office.
NOTE: Relevant information will be sent to the student’s
official HSU email address. If an alternate email address is on
file with the Office of the Registrar, that address may also be
used.
Information may also be distributed via Facebook, as well, to
students who have “liked” the
HSU Alumni
page.
On the Alumni Assn. website
www.hsutx.edu/official-ring ,students may preview choices such as karat weight, stone
options, and style. HSU is offering a ring (large, regular, small
or dainty) with amethysts, cubic zirconia, or plain stars.
Students can select up to 18 letters to be engraved inside the
ring. Upgrades, including diamonds and additional karat
weight, may be purchased at the student’s expense.
Students who are not sized during the times/days provided
may be sized in the Office of Alumni Relations (Compere
Hall), as early in the semester as possible. The last day to
place an order is the day prior to the student’s commencement
ceremony.
About six weeks prior to the May and December
commencement ceremonies, the Alumni Association will
host HSU’s Ring Celebration and Presentation Ceremony.
During sizing, students will be advised of the Ring Ceremony
dates. These will also be available on the University’s
calendar.
During the Ring Celebration and Presentation Ceremony, the
University President or his representative will personally
hand, to each student present, their Official Ring. Because of
space restrictions, a limited number of tickets are available on
a first-come reservation basis for families and friends who
would like to witness this memorable occasion.
