that will surround them would
best communicate who an indi
vidual was.
University of Texas professor
Stephen Daly, an expert in
bronzes, serves as the executive
artist and designer for the project.
Shemwell said the sculpture proj
ect is an undertaking.
“There is not a collection of
bronzes of this scale anywhere in
the world,” he said.
Shemwell said the team met
with the families about a month
ago in Houston to let them see the
first portal and comment on it.
“They seemed very pleased
with our results,” he said.
The portrait artist for the proj
ect, Eric Christensen, will meet
with each family before the
cameo is cast. Christensen is
based in the Texas Hill Country,
and is one of several artists
involved in producing the collec
tion, Shemwell said.
Shemwell said the project is
on an intricate schedule.
“The artist will be completing
the cameos as quickly as possi
ble” he said. “If there’s any gap
in the process at all, we won’t
make the deadline.”
Shemwell said a time capsule
is in the original design, and fam
ilies and students would be
allowed to contribute to it.
“The time capsule would be
buried where centerpole was,”
Shemwell said.
Rosser said at this point there
has not been discussion on the
time capsule, and there has been
no formal approval of the idea.
The site will be conducive to
other ceremonies once complet
ed, Shemwell said.
“I would not be surprised to
see a new set of traditions built
around it,” Shemwell said. “Who
knows what the future of Bonfire
is, but this is the opportunity for
one set of traditions to evolve into
another.”
Diversity
Continued from page 1A
McClendon said the pur
pose of the newly created posi
tion is to bring people together.
“We want to make sure the
position has a broad perspec
tive and the committee is work
ing efficiently toward that,” he
said.
Regents
Continued from page 1A
Aviles expire this year, leaving
Perry one additional appoint
ment to make to the board.
Regents serve six-year terms.
The board is the governing
body for the A&M System,
which consists of nine univer
sities and eight state agencies.
The appointments must be
confirmed by the state senate.
