Students outside of group can see discussions

I have an instructor who is using groups in her course and has discussion questions. She has 3 groups setup.

The problem is that the groups are seeing the post from other groups. 

I masqueraded as a student in the Purple group and she was able to see and post in the discussion group for the Green group, I didn't think it should behave this way. 

When I look at the groups under people, I see the students names listed in the groups to which they are assigned and under the Unassigned Students list. Is there a setting within the groups that is affecting this behavior?

Actually it's not abnormal. The problem is the distinction between Group Sets and Groups. 

The instructor has them set up as 3 Group Sets, not Groups. They can view and participate in Sets to which they do not belong. So it's a little confusing, I'll need to play with it for a solution.
