Ann Allen Brekke
Assistant professor of dance Ann Brekke and Dr. Jerry Brekke, political science professor, share much in common. In fact, the husband and wife duo have shared many memories through the years at Northwest.
Both from different backgrounds and with different goals, somehow they ended up at Northwest and spent a combined 69 years teaching on campus. Jerry came to Northwest from Minnesota in 1964 to teach, while Ann was in Jefferson City earning her master's degree. The couple met during registration in Lamkin Gym in 1965 and were married in 1966.
The couple continued to teach in their respective departments, Jerry focusing primarily on constitutional law and Ann on modern, social, aerobic and recreational dance.
