Ring[edit]

"The ring is worn on the little finger so that it will drag across any surface on which the wearer writes, providing a constant reminder of the engineer's oath." Wouldn't this only happen if the wearer is left-handed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.186.232.27 (talk) 10:41, 25 December 2007‎ (UTC)[reply]

The ring is supposed to be worn on the dominant hand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.105.97.124 (talk) 03:42, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty confused. What country is this talking about. All I can tell is that it probably isn't Canada. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.197.172.158 (talk) 02:30, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree this article should reflect the specific society/country that does this tradition. Coagmano (talk) 07:02, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Found the information from Order of the Engineer and made an edit for clarity. Coagmano (talk) 07:09, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is\was a long-standing Canadian tradition which a number of US schools later parroted, as a later edit pointed out. --Daystrom (talk) 05:16, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
