Student's remarkable journey

James Hickey looks like any bright-eyed 24-year-old who is ready to take on Wall Street after graduating from Pace University. At 18, he started his associate's degree at Westchester Community College. But to pay for that degree, James worked nearly a hundred hours a week at four different jobs. Some nights, he crashed on friend's couch or in the broom closet at a restaurant before starting his next shift as a waiter.
