That is etched in stone in front of the bonfire memorial. Reading it there next to the memorial always gave me chills.

I've only been to it once. Pretty overwhelming. It was difficult to mentally connect that memorial with my memories of working on stack.

They really need to bring back the bonfire. Just have professional engineers supervise...I'm sure there are enough Aggie alumni out there who would be qualified to do it.

It has never really left. Student bonfire continues year in and year out. I had a chance to go last year but it couldn't burn because of the burn ban. It was still a sight to see. I am hoping it burns this year because this is my last year, and because this very well may be our last game with Texas. Sadly the ban is still up.

I thought they banned it because of the tragedy a few years ago?

Are they just doing a smaller bonfire or something?

The bonfire is no longer on campus and has less attendance.
