He used a variety of entrepreneurial ventures to pay his way through the University of Chicago. The president of Bell & Howell, Percy's teacher in a Christian Science Sunday school, had been so impressed by the boy that he gave him a summer job answering complaint letters. Percy was president of the company before he was thirty, on his way to a position of considerable influence in national business and political affairs."
