The memorial will be located on the Polo Fields, the former Bonfire site. “The architects and the University will consult with the families of the victims to see that each portal reflects the fam ilies’ wishes,’’ Rosser said. The second stage begins this semester. Rosser said the University will work closely with Overland Partners, Inc., the San Antonio-based firm selected to design the memorial, to gen erate a design from the stage one renderings. The University will then review the process at the 50 and 95 percent completion points to mon itor the memorial’s progression. The construction phase should begin in the spring when the University takes bids from construction firms. Construction is scheduled for next fall and is expected to last a year, with a tenative completion date on the five-year anniversary of the col lapse.
