Following an incomplete rural school education, he was apprenticed at the age of fifteen but was fired shortly after. Four years later, Hershey borrowed one hundred and fifty dollars from a gracious aunt to set up his own shop in the heart of Philadelphia. For five long years Hershey put everything he had into the business. But success eluded him, he finally closed shop and headed west to reunite with his father. With his father, Hershey found work with a confectioner. But the entrepreneur in Hershey was not content to work for someone else, and he then struck out on his own again. First in Chicago and later in New York City, but in both cases he failed again (Milton). Then in 1883, he returned to Lancaster and still convinced that he could construct a successful candy company, started the Lancaster Carmel Company. Within a few short years Hershey had a successful and thriving business. But when Hershey got an up-close look at the art of chocolate making he was immediately hooked. “The fascination quickly became focused on milk chocolate, considered a delicacy” (Milton), but was largely dominated by the Swiss. In 1900, Hershey sold the Lancaster Caramel Company for a staggering one million dollars and started a new company. Quickly, the Hershey Chocolate Company surpassed the founder’s previous venture.…

Further in March 2002, the Trust Board decided to make a decision that was more in the schools favor, which was making sure that its holdings were less concentrated in Hershey stock. Moreover, the composition of the board moved more toward education professionals in that same year with their mandate remaining to serve the interest of Hershey school.

It addition, it was the boards obligation to keep up with the Hershey legacy by insuring that the decisions that had been made were in line with the legacy views. Keeping Hershey’s legacy of community involvement was a key obligation to the 17 members of the trust bored. Milton Hershey picked Pennsylvania out of many other locations because he wanted to develop a community, one which he grew up in.…

The insignificance of man from Shakespeare along with the concept of living forever from Vaunegut, draws the question of why would someone not want to die if life was so worthless. Both authors question the quality of life and as a result they express their concern in their writing.…
