I guess it could be cut off if I really needed to :) But other than that, no it doesn't come off. You tend to gain weight as you get older, even on your fingers.

Shouldn't you get it adjusted then? I'd be afraid of losing the finger if it gets too tight.

It's not tight enough to be a real concern, just enough that I can't remove it. I think it's more symbolic than anything...the only reason I made it through school was to get the ring and it's a big part of who I am as a person.

Now it is part of my person.

We can usually get new ones for about 15$. I don't think the adjustment costs less. There is also the option of not wearing it, as wearing rings that keeps touching a mouse is annoying sometimes.
