That would require a strong understanding of those outlets and their mechanics. At the very least, finding members that have an expertise in each of the outlets we utilize (YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and ugh... Google+). There have been discussions about this within the APRC, however due to the confidential nature of the committee, I cannot disclose those discussions or their outcomes (or lack thereof). </span></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:small">Brett C.
