( Daddy Can
I See Your
Aggie Ring?
I must have asked my Dad that ques
tion a thousand times as a young boy.
I wanted to be just like him and I wanted
to have an Aggie Ring. Dad gave me
valuable advice when he would say, "If you
go to Texas A&M and work hard you can
earn your own Aggie Ring, just like mine."
Even then, I knew I would, and I did.
Today, we both have Rings, but they
are .not the same. His has worn smooth
over time while mine is just now develop
ing a character of its own. But the Rings
join us in spirit, and remind us of the great
ideals of a great university. Still today when
we are together, I ask, "Daddy, can I see
your Aggie Ring?" Nothing will please me
more than the day my son asks me the
same question. You can be sure I will tell
him the same thing my Dad told me.
