  • The group leader is added as the owner of the group. The owner is responsible for management of the group. 
  • The owner is responsible for adding and removing members. By default, when members are added, they will be set to 'All Email', meaning any posts that go to the group also get sent to the member's personal email address.
  • Group members who want to send e-mails from the group address will need to link their personal mailbox to the group. Instructions are at https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22370?hl=en

With the exception of Google Groups for Student Clubs, which are managed by Student Activities, University Technology oversees the creation of groups for the Drew community.
