I'm not even sure it makes sense to *me*. But it would probably help to know that all Engineers get an iron ring when they graduate.

"The Iron Ring is a symbolic ring worn by many Canadian engineers. Obtaining the ring is an optional endeavour – the ring is not a prerequisite for practicing professional engineering in Canada."

I understood it as you don't need to get a ring, but it is a pretty habit. :)
