contact or in this scenario all mics are muted,
someone with a birthday in a month starting
with J or A should take the mantle.)
b. The reporter will share their responses first.
(Please keep mic on mute until it is your turn.)
c. After the person shares, they will welcome
another person to the conversation by using
their first name.
d. This person can pass or participate. When they
are finished, they invite another person to the
conversation by using their first name.
