THE FOUR FORUMS FEATURED A TIMELY DISCUSSION ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, THE FORMER CONGRESSWOMAN LIZ CHENEY, DOCUMENTARIAN KEN BURNS, AND A DISCUSSION WITH CHEFS AND FOOD WRITERS. IN EACH OF THESE FORUMS, AREA YOUTH WERE INVITED THROUGH THEIR SCHOOLS AND THROUGH NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO MEET WITH THE DISTINGUISHED SPEAKERS EARLIER IN THE DAY TO DISCUSS THE ISSUES THAT MATTER TO THEM. THEY SUBSEQUENTLY ATTENDED THE FORUM THAT EVENING. IN ALL, APPROXIMATELY 10,000 PARTICIPANTS ATTENDED FORUM EVENTS DURING THIS PERIOD. THE CONNECTICUT FORUM PROVIDED ITS PARTNERS THROUGH FORUM EVENT CONSULTING WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO BETTER ENGAGE STAKEHOLDERS - INCLUDING EMPLOYEES OF A LARGE COMPANY THROUGH ENGAGEMENT IN LOCAL ARTS ACTIVITIES, AS WELL AS STUDENTS IN A LOCAL SCHOOL, WHO PARTICIPATED IN A NUMBER OF ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING A CAREER DAY WHERE THEY MET WITH PROFESSIONALS WHO DISCUSSED THEIR WORK AND THE EDUCATION REQUIRED TO ATTAIN THEIR PROFESSIONS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
