j o u r n a l o f h i s t o r y a n d c u l t u r e The grassy mount (next to Spirit Ring) was selected by one person as the most ideal place to sit and relax at the setting. Related comments regarding this were (excerpts from separate interviews): … that hill over there (grassy mount next to the Spirit Ring)… it just looks all nice and green… the middle top (of the grassy mount)… from that place you can see enough of the Memorial but be just below the sight of people in the parking lot and at school. I’d rather not know they are there… I like the peace and quiet of the Memorial… Some concern was expressed about certain features at the setting and the surrounding landscape that seemed to ‘distract’ people from experiencing the solemn quality of the Memorial. Some related comments regarding these features were (excerpts from separate interviews): … I really like the place (Bonfire Memorial)… but maybe not the lights out there (light poles in the parking lot adjacent to the Memorial)… at night the Memorial looks really… really beautiful and everything, but the lights out there can really kill the mood of this place… … you can see all these other buildings from the Memorial (University Towers to the west, and the buildings on the campus to the south). They kindda distract you… there is too much clutter around. It would be awesome if the Memorial was just by itself… segregated… … they (‘University Towers’ and the buildings on campus) aren’t very pretty… it looks like they made an attempt to hide them with that hill (grassy mount around the Spirit Ring)… that phone stand (at the beginning of History Walk) is kindda awkward there. I don’t think I like it that much… it doesn’t seem to fit in this place… but I guess they need it for security reasons… People expressed a general preference for visiting the Memorial alone, with no strangers around or with few people around. There was some concern expressed by one person about visiting the Memorial at night, with no one else around. Some related comments were (excerpts from separate interviews): 82
