1.) MMC communicates as an organization because it is built up of several various departments that work together to accomplish a certain goal. The goal happens to be educating students from a Liberal Arts perspective. MMC communicates this in these different ways and to different people such as staff, faculty and the student body by enabling a shared belief from each different side. Through taking the information received by the college, enabling the professors to share and expand on their knowledge, and ultimately having the students participate in an open-minded and no one answer mindset, MMC functions in a trickling down of information that works circularly, no matter which end of the spectrum you fall under, to contribute what you can in order to further your Liberal Arts education. 

 

2.) In thinking about organizational culture, I would describe the culture at MMC to a prospective student as, a very open-minded atmosphere where each subject is approached with a variety of understandings and interpretations. There is almost never only one way to answer the questions that arise when discussing topics and subjects in the classroom at MMC. I think that it is a place for each of us to bring what we have learned or interpreted from the subject at hand and listen and learn from others what they have as well.
