The official fall 2024 Ring Ceremony was hosted in December at the Chapel of Memories. The Ring Ceremony, held twice each year before the fall and spring commencements, is a time-honored tradition for presenting the university’s official class rings. MSU President Mark E. Keenum was the keynote speaker and presented participants with their rings. MSU’s ROTC and Black Voices Gospel Choir also made special presentations during the ceremony. The Alumni Association recognized Terri Russell, who earned MSU degrees in 1984 and 1986. Russell is a longtime alumni volunteer with the Birmingham Alumni Chapter and currently leads the Alumni Association national board of directors as national president. She took part in the ceremony along with more than 50 MSU students as the fall Ring honoree.
