    • Mandatory? It is an expectation that they participate on at least one, but can do two, will be recorded
      • Potentially cut out candidate statements in video and share them on the forum.
    • What questions are we asking them? Simple and good: they make a one-minute statement, say whatever they want, welcome to repeat their statement, welcome to focus on their statement. Then the rest will be Q&A driven (45 minutes).
