The UT Tower will shine with burnt orange lights Thursday, November 18 in honor of this year’s class ring recipients.

Ahead of the Texas Exes Ring Celebration, class rings will spend the night the Tower while it shines in honor of the students and alumni who will soon wear them. The recipients will gather at the Tower the following day for the Ring Celebration and to pick up their rings.

The shining Tower, a beacon of Longhorn pride, will infuse the rings with the spirit of the Forty Acres.”

The class ring not only symbolizes the incredible education alumni have received and the experiences that have shaped them, it is also a daily reminder to change the world.
