Group 4 - SPC2608/4627

Following our first group assignment, we were instructed to regroup with the same members from the previous group project and discuss Hialeah as a whole. Each group was given a focus - Hialeah's migration process, as well as its past, present, and future. Discussed was the history, current, and the near future of Hialeah. Upon receiving their main focus topic, each group split up the workload into potential research topics in order to come up with the content needed for the project.
