Campus Services Chief
Lisa Hogarty, most recently chief operating officer of the Columbia University Medical Center and previously Columbia’s executive vice president for student and administrative services, has been appointed Harvard’s vice president of campus services. Executive vice president Katie Lapp, who made the announcement in late April, cited Hogarty’s management experience in both academia and healthcare. She will oversee the 1,600 employees in dining services, real estate, and the University operations center (including environmental health and safety and incident-support teams).
