Bob Jensen has served as the Dean of Fine Arts since January 2005 after having taught in the Theatre Arts Department since 1980, where he distinguished himself as an award-winning director, designer, and instructor who loves to teach. Bob's work has been recognized by the Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival, OC Weekly, Los Angeles Times and the National Council of Instructional Adminstrators.
