What is a Google Group?
Google Groups is a service provided by Google to UFM that serves multiple purposes:
Email Lists: It allows you to email everyone in a group with a single email address.
Discussion Boards: by keeping all email sent to a group in a single location it provides a discussion board and an email history for the group members.
Google Drive security: by assigning a Google Drive to the Google Group the members of the group automatically have access to the Group’s Google Drive.
