The ring ceremony includes presentations on the history of TTUHSC and the ring tradition. All current students and alumni who receive their class ring during the year are welcome to participate in the ceremony.

Today, TTUHSC serves 4,000 students across the nation and boasts almost 28,000 alumni, 24 percent of whom remained in the university’s 108-county service area.
