Group Reflection Paper My group members for the group speech were Alex Potzner, Caitlyn Haller, and Shelby Welsh. I really had a great group experience, and I think my other group members would agree. When we first got together, it was pretty easy to narrow down our topic choices.

At our meeting, everyone…
