Victory Ring Tradition

The Victory Ring embodies the spirit of the university's famed Victory Bell and defines what it means to be a Lion.

Since 1886, the sound of the Victory Bell has represented the unrelenting strength and determination of the Lion spirit. The sound reached the far corners of campus, announcing Lion athletics wins and celebrating triumph over adversity.

During the Victory Ring Ceremony, we continue the tradition by ringing in your achievements and perseverance as an East Texas A&M student.

The ceremony promises to be one of your most cherished memories at East Texas A&M. As you join your classmates in celebration, you will forge a bond with past, present and future Lions, founded on a shared heritage of pride and achievement.

After you graduate, your Victory Ring will open doors and connect you to alumni everywhere. It will evoke memories that make you smile and shine a proud reflection on you and your achievements.
