Professor Henson made sure to know every students name in his lecture despite there being over 100 students. It really seemed like he cared about each and every student in the class and wanted everyone to do well. This was definitely the easiest class that I have taken, due to him giving plenty of extra credit as well as being very understanding.

I really enjoyed taking Soc 134 with Professor Henson because he seemed very passionate about the subject, and he made lectures very engaging. He was also pretty chill and offered several opportunities for extra credit, which was nice. I agree that there were a lot of readings for the class, but most of the time they helped me understand content.

The professor makes the class a little too difficult for a freshman class and I would appreciate if he could've remembered what it was like to be a student .

Lectures were super engaging and very easy to follow along. I went to every lecture because he made the class fun but he does cold call.

I had professor Henson also last semester and I noticed after each negative review an overwhelmingly positive one emerges, likely because of the professor writing them. My experience in the course was similar to that of others, in the sense that it was a lot of work for a level 100 course.

I had Professor Henson for SOC 134 Fall semester and loved it! I understand the other reviews complaining about the amount of reading- but it really wasn't too bad in my opinion. He's a fantastic lecturer and made the lectures really engaging- knew everyone's name by the end of the second week. Great professor and tons of EC opportunity.
