Alumni News

This fall, alumni can benefit from a number of UT Dallas events taking place both in-person and virtually. Whether you’re looking to purchase your UT Dallas Ring to commemorate graduation or hoping to give back to your alma mater, the following events are a great way to stay involved with UT Dallas.

Sept. 23 – North Texas Giving Day

On North Texas Giving Day, UT Dallas alumni have the opportunity to donate to the University and benefit generations of Comets and the Dallas-Fort Worth community. In its 13th year, this annual online event makes giving back simple with the ability to schedule your gift to your alma mater as well as other nonprofits.

Oct. 5 & 6 – UT Dallas Ring Days with Balfour

It’s never too late to get your UT Dallas Ring, and Ring Days with Balfour are a great way to get more information and select a ring that best represents your time at UT Dallas. You can view different ring styles in person, including new Kendra Scott styles, and have your preferred finger measured to ensure the perfect fit.

Nov. 3 – UT Dallas Awards Gala

After a year off, we’re looking forward to celebrating our alumni, donors and friends at the annual UT Dallas Awards Gala. This year’s celebration will honor notable alumni and community leaders and the future of UT Dallas with our current New Dimensions campaign. Stay tuned for more information about how you can be a part of the gala.

Dec. 2 – UT Dallas Ring Ceremony

After you’ve received your UT Dallas Ring, you can join other recipients in a UT Dallas tradition at the annual Ring Ceremony. Once you’ve accepted your ring at the event, you can take part in the ceremonial ring dunk in the reflecting pools on campus. No matter if you graduated in 2020 or in 2000, you’re always invited back to participate in the Ring Ceremony if you’ve purchased a class ring.

Dec. 4 – Temoc Sock Day

Nothing says Comet pride quite like a pair of socks with your favorite mascot’s face on them. And what better way to display them than National Sock Day? Show your love for Temoc and UT Dallas on this annual holiday by purchasing a pair of Temoc socks (or multiple for a full set). Plus, every $10 pair of Temoc socks is a donation and gives back to the University in a meaningful way.
