The spirit of nonprofit governance by an independent board of trustees appears to be severely strained in the case of Everglades College. According to records available from the Florida Division of Corporations, at the time that Dale Chynoweth was added to the board of directors, he was hardly “unrelated” to other board members, as he was partner with Arthur Keiser in at least one business (Spectrum Business Park Association). In the ensuing years, the two were business partners in multiple properties that are rented by Everglades College. Zev Helfer joined Arthur Keiser as a business partner (College Pathology Labs, Inc.) just months before being named as an added “unrelated” director of Everglades College, Inc.

Non-Profit organizations are a major mold in society in general, and they continue to help advance many of the social causes of our time. From the description, we know that employee and volunteer morale is quite low, and that is the fault of the senior management. In an organization, it is important that each individual knows that they are contributing to something larger than themselves. In many cases, employees seek to work somewhere where they can earn a living, but also where they can become a member of a team, and feel a sense of purpose. When they are not treated with respect or given the ability to make their own decisions, they lose engagement and become stagnant in their work. Volunteers look for much of the same thing; they are, after

The nonprofit sector in America is a reflection some of the foundational values that brought our nation into existence. Fundamentals, such as the idea that people can govern themselves and the belief that people should have the opportunity to make a difference by joining a like-minded group, have made America and its nonprofit sector what it is today. The American "civil society" is one that has been produced through generations of experiments with government policy, nonprofit organizations, private partnerships, and individuals who have asserted ideas and values. The future of the nonprofit sector will continue to be experimental in many ways. However, the increase of professional studies in nonprofit management and the greater expectation of its role in society is causing executives to look to more scientific methods of management.

Over the last 20 years, there has been a significant increase in nonprofit and nongovernment organizations (NGOs) in the United States. With the increase in organizations, also came an increase in scandals and in the 1990’s multiple nonprofit and nongovernment organizations lost the public’s trust due to misuse of funds, lavish spending, and improper advances to protected populations. These charity scandals not only hurt direct organization’s reputation, but also led to the mistrust of nonprofit and nongovernmental organizations as a whole (Sidel, 2005). To combat these reputations, NGOs and nonprofit organizations began to self-regulate through employing morally obligated and altruistic employees, accountability practices, and lastly through

The director is the head of six departments ran by associate directors. Under these associate directors several other department and student organizations are ran. Also, due to the size communication was quite open all associate directors felt comfortable and took meeting with the dean of students as well as the president of the university. This could be due to the institutions bragging on being an open campus where leadership is highly encouraged and often expected. Even though there is open flow of communication between all there is a divide of authority. Rev. Scott answers to the director of student affairs but in her department, she is the person who has authority and power she makes rule and plans the course of action for her advisor and she sets the tone and goal for all aspects of inclusivity programing at the institution. This is not something one would assume by the organizational lay out that she described. Based on the information it would be seem that organization is rigid and every person has a
