This group is composed of three students:
Elizabeth Christensen, Vanessa Roman, and Nicholet Deschine.
Following are a short description of each student.

Christensen is a senior at Arizona State University graduating

important to her to learn how media has numerous effects
on a child's development. She enjoys watching "Passions"
on daytime TV and listening to music.
