Harvey's last day was Nov. 8. A reception was held in Marletto's Marketplace and dozens came by to wish Harvey farewell.
"I learned a lot and met lots of great people," Harvey said. "I'm looking for new challenges."
Harvey said his biggest accomplishments were the construction of Jazzman's Cafe and the renovation of the Maria Hall cafeteria into Marletto's.
Ted Hoef, dean of students, said he enjoyed working with Harvey.
"He's done a great job being part of the Webster community," Hoef said. "He has always been very responsive to students. I wish him well."
Lisa Padgett, the supervisor at Blimpie's in the University Center, also had praise for Harvey.
"He's probably the best boss I've ever had," Padgett said. "He knows how to mix business with pleasure."
Brad Woodroffe became the new general manager Nov. 9. He held that position in 1998 and 1999. Hoef said Woodroffe has experience working at Romano's Macaroni Grill and Forest Park Hospital's food services, as well as at a number of universities.
Harvey will take a temporary position at the Sodexho food service office at the Jesuit Community in St. Louis while he looks for options in other states.
