1). How are organizations tied to the environment? What is the relationship between the school you attend and the city or town in which it is situated? What, if any, ethical obligations does an organization like a college or university have to the local community?
Organizations are tied to the environment according to Trenholm. “Organizations are linked to their environments. Organizations depend on their surroundings for resources and energy” (215). We all have specific duties and roles in our environments that we need to work with in order for our environment to run smoothly. For example, I am a personal banker and my services at work are necessary in order for my branch to run. We need to adapt to change in order of a successful environment.
I am currently attending San Jose State and live in the Evergreen community. Also, making sure that funding for both are taken cared in order to ensure an efficient community.
In my opinion, ethical obligations an organization like a university has to a local community are whether or not what they’re doing for the community is to their benefit personally or as a whole because there are certain things that people are more concerned with than others—we all have our differences. They both are trying to better their environment by focusing on the cleanliness of both—making sure that both are taken cared of and that proper security is in place in order to provide a safe yet clean environment for all.

I agree with what you had to say about how the university should be focusing on the cleanliness of the environment and to continue making it a safe environment. With so many students attending SJSU there needs to be constant clean up because hundreds of students are coming through each day. The campus also has a lot of outside traffic that comes through each day so the school is constantly needing to be on top of the cleanliness. If it is not clean then it is easier for germs to spread and easier for students to get sick and miss class. It is also important that the safety of the campus is always kept on top of. The area surrounding SJSU has many different types of people living in the area. When I used to live right off campus we had a few scares with homeless people who were not mentally stable and it was very scary for me and my roommates. It is important that the students be aware when walking in the evening to always be on their guard and the SJSU PD should be aware of everything.
