2003 Ring Weekend

Ring Weekend is a significant event in a Firstie's life! It begins with the formal Ring Ceremony at Trophy Point on Friday. After cheers, smiles and the displaying of rings to friends and families, Firsties make their trek back to the barracks. Most are met by rambunctious plebes readily repeating "ring poop" and catching a glimpse of Firsties' new rings. On Saturday, the Firsties and their families and/or dates attend a banquet at Washington Hall and afterwards retreat to Eisenhower Hall for an evening of dancing and socializing.
