Congratulations to all Queen's Geological Sciences and Geological Engineering students who received their Earth Rings! Students are pictured on the front steps of Miller Hall following the awarding ceremony.
According to The Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta (APEGGA), "The Earth Science Ring Ceremony, [is] a ritual of welcome into the profession of newly qualified geologists and geophysicists by senior practicing Earth scientists...". "And "Like the engineer’s iron ring, the Earth science ring’s simplicity and strength bear witness to the calling of the geologist and geophysicist."
Congratulations, all!
