ABSTRACT:

The author shares the challenges of maneuvering a nonprofit academic organization into a business model so it can be sustainable while following strict federal and state guidelines. By overhauling the entire conference registration process, streamlining international financial transactions, and better managing visa application requirements of multiple countries, we have been able to transform the MSA. These were the steps that were necessary to make the Mediterranean Studies Association a successful and thriving global organization.
