Description
William Arthur Jensen (1881 -1945) served as executive secretary for presidents Kerr and Peavy and was a member of the college's administrative council. He came to OAC in 1907. After President Kerr was in an auto accident and needed nearly a year to recover, Jensen served as the de facto president of OAC during Kerr's hiatus. The campus gates were dedicated to Jensen for his strong support of WPA art projects on campus during the 1930s.
