Opening activity reflections: limited time in ACM to reflect and have discussion. Having a deep, meaningful check-in/opening can be challenging in such a short timeframe. May want to keep opening activities light. Forcing people to interact.

Sometimes people feel judged when passing during check-in. Prescribing a questions.
