The Nebraska Ring is more than a piece of jewelry. Look closer. True, it is molded metal and an encrusted stone. But look closer. The ring is shared experiences and our individuality. It is the camaraderie we share as Cornhuskers, the classes we take, the grounds we walk and the achievements we make.
Thus, this ring is Nebraska and Nebraska is the ring.
