Frances J. Toland, athletic business manager at Harvard for 22 years, became the new associate director of athletics July 1. John P. Reardon, Jr., '60, director of athletics, announced this week.
Toland will fill the post that was vacant for nearly a year after Adronike Janus left Harvard in March of 1980 to become director of admissions and athletics at Wheaton College.
"He will do a first rate job," Reardon said. "He has shown himself to be very capable," he added.
As associate director, Toland will be the chief fiscal officer of the athletics department.
"I try to keep a low profile, stay behind the scenes and get the job done," Toland said.
In the past dozen years Toland has supervised the completion of new recreational facilities on campus including the new pool, the Dixon Courts and the Bright Hockey Center.
Toland graduated from Northeastern University in 1957 and came to Harvard in 1959, the same year that Reardon was the undergraduate manager of the varsity football team.
