The Iron Ring is worn on the pinky finger of the dominant hand at the end of an engineering degree, so participants dye the pinky finger purple (the color of engineering) at the start of the degree. The dye used is non-toxic, diluted body paint, and can be removed from your skin by scrubbing with soap and water. We encourage engineering students and all FED students to participate as it is a fun, optional tradition. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/fallorientation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/66\/2025\/08\/EngFrosh-Purpling-Waiver-2025.pdf\">Purpling Waiver<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Please submit your waivers in advance using the form below.
