From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lars Gunerius Loe (18 April 1883 – 8 January 1971) was a Norwegian surveyor and rector.

He was born in Ulstein as a smallholders' son. In 1914 he married a priest's daughter.[1]

After graduating from the Norwegian College of Agriculture in 1906 he was a research fellow from 1906 to 1908, docent from 1913 and professor of land surveying from 1919. From 1934 to 1945 he served as the Norwegian College of Agriculture rector, interrupted by the Nazi-installed Michael Marius Langballe during 1942–45.[1] During his hiatus during the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany, Loe was also incarcerated in Bredtveit concentration camp from 24 March to the war's end.[2]

He died in 1971.[3]
