Warren Fraser: Quality from the Start

THERE COMES a time in everyone's life when the desire to "get away from it all" simply kicks in. Suffice to say, Warren Fraser loved getting away so much that he decided not to come back.

More than 40 years later, Fraser—manager of Printing Services for the University of Alaska-Fairbanks—has no regrets about having left New England. Fraser had followed a friend's lead and decided to transfer to UA-Fairbanks from Plymouth State (N.H.) for his junior year in 1970. And despite the fact that temperatures routinely reach -40 degrees, Fraser was hooked from the beginning.
