But not all students are ready to give the treasured pitcher of beer the heave-ho. Lisa Beaumont, a senior psy chology major, said she has a special place in her heart for fermented hops. “I like to think of beer as my friend,” Beaumont said. “Dunking my ring in anything else just wouldn’t be the same.” A&M students have many dif ferent beliefs and there seems to be a place at the table for ring dunkers of all types. It really boils down to the old phrase, “To each his own.” If stu dents want to dunk their ring in liquor, they have numerous op tions. If not, they have just as many non-alcoholic methods to use.
