The Man With The Ring

As I rode the train home today, I noticed a pretty average guy. He was no different from the other passengers, except for one minor detail. He was wearing a ring. From the design I knew immediately it was a class ring, and judging by his age I guessed it was a college ring. With that simple observation I was hooked. I wanted to know his name, what college he went to, what he studied…not because I wanted to pursue him, but because it was incredibly appealing to see someone who valued education enough to get a college degree.

I wish HS kids could find this quality as appealing as they find swag to be.
