Harvard University executive vice president Edward Forst, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. manager who joined the school in September to oversee finances at his alma mater, is leaving after less than a year.

Forst will step down Aug. 1 to return to New York and resume working in the financial services industry, the university said in a statement posted on the school website yesterday.

A 1982 graduate of Harvard College, Forst was hired to be the "principal ranking operating officer" at Harvard.
