LOL! I don't know if Engineering students do this in the US, but Canadian ones don't only dye themselves purple at homecoming games and during Frosh (Freshman Orientation) Week, but right before they graduate, they earn their "iron rings". It's apparently a secret ritual very much like GLO intiation (I don't know the details as I'm not an engineer). The ring is to be worn on your right pinky. Non Engineers can't wear it.

I don't think my engineer husband did anything like that, but he's regaled me with enough stories of his own from his fraternity days I wouldn't put it past him.
