Ghandi, after settling into his new home, began to realize how far away his dream was. In a unifying spirit, Ghandi worked for all Indians located in South Africa which included the wealthy muslims and the indentured servant hindus. He tried to act as a bridge which would narrow the divide between the castes and religions of the Indian community of South Africa. While facing the religious and class inequality within the Indian community, Mohandas faced the constant persecution of his people as a whole at the hands of the British. In one journey, he experienced ejection from a train because he would not move from the first class section which was for Europeans and being assaulted because he would not give up his stage coach seat to a European. Carnegie was not free from hardship either. After moving to America in prospects for a better life, he worked at a textile factory for a pittance of $1.20 a week for 72 hours of work. Though child labor was not preferable, Carnegie knew that to have his dream realized he would need to save money which would involve hardships. Outgrowing the textile mill, he then worked as a telegraph messenger which earned him almost double his textile job. Through this job, he was able to make connections with the important businessmen of Pittsburgh. During this time of low wages, the Carnegie family lived in one of the poorest regions of the country, the Alleghenies in Pennsylvania. At the hands of the heartless

How can some people struggle when they have a degree from a quality institution, while others can be successful without a college degree or in a field unrelated to their degree? In my opinion, it’s because a college education doesn’t guarantee success. Success is up to many other factors that college often does not teach. I believe that certification tests would be a better replacement for the BA, because they would separate the students with the will and determination from those who are just coasting their way through their courses. Having other forms of means like certification tests would better implement employers with the important resources in determining whether or not applicants for any given job position hold the best
