Q: In modern society, receiving systematic college education seems a necessary way for success as a graduate from first-class university may always get more opportunities than others. However, if it is gold, it will shine one day. In this article, we will get to know three most successful people in U.S. who never finished their college education. Following experiences of these successful _ s may give you some inspiration. 1. Bill Gates Harvard's campus paper "Harvard Crimson" called Bill Gates "Harvard's most successful dropout," while the rest of the world preferred to name him "the world's richest man" for more than a decade. Now, even not on the top, he is still among the list of the world's wealthiest people.Gates entered Harvard in the fall of 1973. Two years later, he dropped out to found Microsoft with friend Paul Allen. And in 2007, he finally received an honorary doctorate from Harvard. 2. Steve Jobs The iPad, even Buzz Lightyear probably wouldn't have existed if Steve Jobs stayed in school. Because his family couldn't afford his college education, Jobs had to drop out of Reed College just after entering for 6 months. Then he found Apple, NeXT Computer and Pixar, which had made great influences on development of modern technique and culture. However, this wizard thought that his brief college education was not worthless. 3. Frank Lloyd Wright As the America's most celebrated architect, Wright spent more time on designing colleges rather than attending classes in them. Once spent one year in the University of Wisconsin-Madison, then he left for Chicago and started to learn from Louis Sullivan, the "father of modernism." Wright' s splendid resume included more than 500 works, most famous of which are Fallingwater and New York City's Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.

(CNN) -- Who doesn't love a good holiday-themed episode?

Before our favorite TV characters put their turkeys in the oven, decorate their Christmas trees and light their menorahs, they'll dress up in funny costumes and beg for candy ... or mercy.

Kicking off prime time's Halloween celebration is ABC Family's "Pretty Little Liars," which will air its second annual Halloween special on Tuesday at 8 p.m.

We can't wait to see how "A" will terrorize Aria, Hanna, Emily and Spencer aboard Rosewood's Halloween Ghost Train.

On a lighter note, "The Mindy Project" will air its Halloween episode, complete with hilarious costumes and an equally hilarious guest star, Bill Hader, at 9:30 p.m.

Mindy Kaling, the creator and star of the Fox sitcom, said her character will have "five or six costume changes" throughout the episode, and "they're not sexy, hot girl costumes."

Constantine the Great (; ; 27 February 272AD 22 May 337AD), also known as Constantine I or Saint Constantine (in the Orthodox Church as Saint Constantine the Great, Equal-to-the-Apostles), was a Roman Emperor of Illyrian-Greek origin from 306 to 337AD. He was the son of Flavius Valerius Constantius, a Roman Army officer, and his consort Helena. His father became "Caesar", the deputy emperor in the west, in 293AD. Constantine was sent east, where he rose through the ranks to become a military tribune under Emperors Diocletian and Galerius. In 305, Constantius raised himself to the rank of "Augustus", senior western emperor, and Constantine was recalled west to campaign under his father in Britannia (Britain). Constantine was acclaimed as emperor by the army at Eboracum (modern-day York) after his father's death in 306AD, and he emerged victorious in a series of civil wars against Emperors Maxentius and Licinius to become sole ruler of both west and east by 324AD.

As emperor, Constantine enacted many administrative, financial, social, and military reforms to strengthen the empire. The government was restructured, and the civil and military authorities were separated. A new gold coin was introduced to combat inflation known as the solidus. It became the standard for Byzantine and European currencies for more than a thousand years.
