Today’s generation of Aggies might find it difficult to connect with the Bonfire collapse. Being 25 years removed from the tragedy can make it hard for students to understand the visceral emotions and poignant loss of that night. The Bonfire Remembrance Ceremony serves as a reminder to students to always remember the 12 lives lost and to perpetuate the enduring Aggie spirit.

But to those who were students at the time, the ceremony was a personal reminder of a day they will never forget.
