The Power of a Ring

I had a man with his daughter sit in my section. When I went to greet them, I noticed the man was wearing a large gold ring. I asked him what his ring signified and he told me it was his Junior Ring from Norwich University class of 1982. I smiled and he asked me why the grin. I went on to explain to him that I was in the class of ’08. We exchanged a few funny stories and recalled numerous traditions that still go on today. We talked about our favorite professors one of whom we both enjoyed, Professor Orrick aka “The Prof”, and realized we both had studied criminal justice. We exchanged information and plan on meeting up for a drink at alumni weekend in the Fall. Bought he and his daughter their lunches that day and parted with a handshake and both saying, as if on cue, “Norwich Forever”.
