Education
Hensel earned her bachelor's degree in theatre from San Francisco State University and went on to attain master's degrees in both theatre and early childhood education from the same institution. She earned her doctorate in early childhood education from the University of Georgia.[3]
Academic career
Hensel worked as a lecturer and director of the Division of Elementary Education at the University of Georgia.[4] From 1972 to 1977 she was assistant professor of early childhood education at the University of Toledo.[5] She next moved to the University of Redlands in Redlands, California, where she became Department Chair and Professor of Education.[3] She was a coordinator of early childhood education in 1979,[6] and in 1987 directed the Elementary Experimental Summer School, in which primary school students were given access to the university's computer facilities, library, and swimming pool.[7]
In 1992[3] Hensel moved to Maine and became Dean of the College of Education at the University of Maine at Farmington the same year.[8] From 1995 to 1999 she filled the posts of Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.[8]
In 1999 she was named to a one-year term as interim president of the University of Maine at Presque Isle, becoming the second woman to head the campus in its history.[9] In 2000 she acceded to the presidency.[2]
In 2004 Hensel moved to Washington, D.C. to become the CEO of the Council on Undergraduate Research, an organization with more than 600 college and university members which assists faculty in working with students on research.[2][3] She held this post for seven years.[3]
In November 2011, Hensel was named the first president of The New American Colleges and Universities, a national consortium of 22 selective, medium-sized (2,000–7,500 students) independent colleges and universities.[3]
She retired from NAC&U in 2019.[10]
Writing and speeches
In her early career, Hensel wrote and spoke extensively on the work–family conflict for women faculty members in higher education.[11][12] Her 1991 monograph on "the impact of maternity and child rearing on university tenure" was considered "groundbreaking".[8] Her current work focuses on undergraduate research and she has written two books and several articles and monographs on the topic.

Hensel served as Commissioner of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, was a trustee of the Maine School of Science and Mathematics, and was appointed by the governor to the Maine Economic Growth Council.[3] She also chaired the Maine State Committee on Results Based Teacher Certification, which instituted standards for teacher certification.[8]
