Dr. Henke is one of the most eccentric professors @ UW. One day she dresses normally; the next, she wears a neon green leopard-print tuxedo. 151 is easy, especially if you have any sort of background in music. You will make music on baby instruments and have take-home exams; what more can you ask for? She's also chill; just show up. easy humanitiesRate My Professors ↗

I'm sure that after graduation, when I look back these college days, this will become one of the happiest memories in my college life ever. If you have the chance to take it, lucky you!Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 1/5Difficulty 3/5
Not a good course, strict grader, not very understanding. Got one question wrong on an exam and lost 32 points out of 100 for just that question. My grade dropped 7% from that one question. Worst professor I have had.Rate My Professors ↗

This class ended up being a bit more boring than I thought it would be, but Dr. J is a good professor and you can tell she tries to make the content interesting and easy to understand. The class is very easy; exams are outside of class and all you really need to do is go to class and take notes. My favorite part of the class was group projects.Rate My Professors ↗

Dr. J is an amazing teacher and this is an easy class. All you have to do is show up. Not to mention she gives great lectures and you truly do leave with an understanding of the material.Rate My Professors ↗

I took it online, but she really did a good job explaining concepts through the lecture videos. The exams are easy, and the works are simple, too. You just have to spend some time studying, then you'll get an A fs.Rate My Professors ↗
