 Under what circumstances does one receive a ring? To get married? An engagement? How about graduation?
 
China University of Geosciences (Beijing) has decided to present a tailored graduation ring to each of its graduate. Designed by the alumni of the university's Jewelry School, the rings will be embedded with different gems(宝石 bǎoshí) for different degrees.
 
According to the university, the ring shall be made of 925 sterling silver(银 yín), plated with 18 karat platinum, and embedded with a crystal(水晶) for a graduate of bachelor's degree, sapphire(蓝宝石 lánbǎoshí) for master's and diamond(钻石 zuànshí) for doctor's. Accompanying a letter from the president, it shall come with a trencher cap shaped package.
 
Moreover, the inner surface of the ring shall bear the school motto(校训 xiàoxùn) as well as the student's name(姓名 xìngmíng) and number(学号 xuéhào). More than 4,000 graduation rings are currently in the mail.
 
"Behind the ring is special love for the university. May graduates avoid conceit and impetuosity and forge ahead toward their faith, mission and dreams," the university wrote in a Weibo post on Sunday.
 
As the news about the rings came out, many took to the social media platforms to express appreciation(羡慕 xiànmù). Some netizens said they were "envious(嫉妒 jídù)," with many hoping their universities could do the same. Some also lauded how the gems matched the levels of degrees. Some students also joked about their graduation gifts, while others said that although they did not receive a diamond ring when they graduated, the gifts they received from the university were meaningful.
