  "The Virginia Tech Ring Collection has become one of the University's most revered and prestigious traditions since its beginnings in 1914.  The Ring program is unique from other colleges in that the collection is completely redesigned each year, making it a highly anticipated tradition within the University.

The first Class Ring at Virginia Tech belonged to the Class of 1911, but it was the Class of 1914 that selected the first Ring Design Committee, a special group of students charged with the task of designing a Class Ring that would be unique an meaningful to their class.  Ninety-nine years later, the Ring Design Committee of the class still has the unique responsibility of designing a ring collection that represents Virginia Tech and serves as a reflection of the memories and traditions that each class will take with them when they leave Tech....The design, collection, and the namesake are revealed to the Class during the fall of their junior year at Ring Premiere."
-from  the Class of 2010 Ring Collection Brochure
