NEWBERRY — Newberry College hosted its annual College Ring Ceremony at the Wiles Chapel on Sept. 26 to present eligible students with their class rings.

Huger Caughman Jr., a math teacher at Newberry High School and a member of the Class of 2000, spoke at the event where 15 students received their rings.

Among those were Vanessa Ortiz of Cochabamba, Bolivia, and Erica Teal of Boiling Springs, winners of the 2015 Newberry College Alumni Association Class Ring Award. They were selected to receive free class rings from the Newberry College Alumni Association based on essay submissions.

The Ring Ceremony is co-sponsored by the Newberry College Alumni Association and Herff Jones, Newberry College’s ring vendor of over 30 years.
