2011 Hall of Fame: Joel Quadracci - The Next Generation

He continued to work at Quad in varying capacities during his college summers from Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY, where he studied philosophy. “My father told me that college undergrad is not a time to specialize; it’s a time to learn how to think,” Quadracci explains.

Initially, Quadracci planned to “gain credibility” by putting in time with a Wall Street investment banking firm first, but then saw the merit in joining Quad’s two- to three-year training program, which delighted his father.
