Class of ’07 reveals ring

The Sophomore Class Council will be sponsoring a ring premiere event Wednesday in the College Center Grand Ballroom starting at 6 p.m.

This will be the first time sophomores will have the opportunity to see the class ring that was designed specifically for the class by the Class of 2007 Ring Premiere committee made up of members of the Sophomore Class Council.

"The annual ring premiere is an event for sophomores to come out and view their class ring,"

Sophomore Class Vice President Emily Watson said. "The night will be full of excitement with Exit 245, Mozaic, Indian dancers, the Breakdancing Club and a deejay.

"The sophomores can expect food and free gifts as well," Watson said. "Each sophomore will be given a bag full of giveaways such as a class shirt and stadium cup. There will be many raffles during the night and some of the prizes are JMU George Foreman grills with the 2007 class logo on them, a TV, a PlayStation, parking passes and many gift certificates."

Students were sent invitations in their local mailboxes. Students attending are asked to come "dressed to impress."

"Sophomores should come to ring premiere because it is the one event especially for the Class of 2007, and there will be a lot of entertainment," Sophomore Class Treasurer Aimee Cipicchio said.

Representatives from Balfour will be at the event giving students the opportunity to order class rings. Gift certificates for purchasing rings also will be raffled off at the event. Students will also have the chance to order rings in Warren Hall throughout the week.

"The council has put so much time and work and collaboration with a lot of different groups, so it should be a good time," Sophomore Class Secretary Katie Austen said. "It’s one of the biggest events of the year for sophomores."
