Corruption is a problem that affects individuals and institutions, from the smallest scale to the mightiest among us. This practice in our society can engender inequality and completely undermine social progress. As young people, we should aim to live up to our ideals and summon our best nature in order to set a new course for fair and equitable practices in all aspects of life. Corruption can and does affect the poorest and most marginalized among us and must be stamped out at all levels, from the individual to the corporate.
