I have a private group in Facebook for a group of classmates. I know with the tools Facebook provides you are able to download your own data. However, I want to download all the status updates, images, docs, etc… from a Facebook group. Is this possible?

To download your data, log into Facebook, then click the little arrow in the top right and select "Account Settings".
In the bottom left of your "General Account Settings" find the line of text that says "Download a copy of your Facebook data" and click the link.
To delete a group secret or public you have to remove each user one by one. To remove posts too you have to delete individually. IMO there is no other method.
