Two New Hires at HASCS

Harvard Arts and Sciences Computer Services (HASCS) hired two new employees this summer to oversee network maintenance and expansion.

Harold Longley is the new Unix systems manager Longley, who had worked at City Research Supercomputer Co. in Minnesota has extensive experience in UNIX systems programming and management and in UNIX security, according to HASCS director Franklin M. Stern.

David Brady is the new senior UNIX systems analyst. Brady, an electrical engineer, has worked at Northeastern University's academic competing section for the past three years.

"We are very fortunate and pleased to have two new experienced professionals (working on our UNIX systems," Steen said. "They have already made a difference in the short time they have been here, and I think students will see a much smoother operating UNIX system because of the experience and skill they bring."

Steen declined to allow Longley or Bradly to be interviewed by The Crimson, saying that interview would be an enormous distraction to his staff.

Longley replaces Michael G. Burner, by all accounts the soul of Harvard's UNIX system, who left two summers ago, Burner was described by one student last year as the "god-upon-god on Harvard UNIX systems."

Brady takes over Thomas Heft, who accepted a position in the UNIX systems manager at Brown University at the end of July.

"I left because this job was too good to pass up," Heft said in an interview last Friday. "I was very happy at Harvard and it was a tough decision to decide whether to stay or not."
