I wonder if the Hymn of Breaking Strain is part of the ceremony.

I prefer songs by Fear Factory. Take for example, Strain vs. Resistance, or Self Bias Resistor.

Not to worry. There's too few real engineers lurking here to make it
worth thinking about :-(

I've noticed the wimminfolks seem to be rather aware of the
significance of the iron or SS engineering ring.

The building at Univ. of Toronto named after old Prof. Haultain used
to contain a small fission reactor (right in the center of the city
and a few blocks from hospital row), but they recently decommissioned
it.
