Comment:

Dr. Hensley is a super nice man, and is a very helpful professor if you meet with him. However, with the new class format his tests were hard because you couldn't study the old ones. Also, he only talks and expects you to write notes from what he says, no powerpoints. The practical is hard but he will help you. Studying is important.

Comment:

You can tell that Dr. Hensley enjoys what he does. He is great at explaining issues from all sides. He is actually a pretty funny guy but the extremely sensitive might be somewhat offended. Workload is fair.

Comment:

I have taken 5 of Dr. Hensley's class and soon to be a sixth. He is such a great professor, and since he tells stories, I have never gotten bored in one of his lectures. Tests come straight from notes. Even study the silly stories, they can be extra credit ;) Bio 208, Evol., Ecol., Wildlife, Bio. of Horses, Human Dev.

Comment:

He is probably one of my favorite teachers here at Bridgewater College. Every single one of his classes are fairly easy and challenging at the same time. He tries to make everything applicable to everyday activities and if he can't... he'll just make you laugh instead... he's basically the man!

This class is everything you've ever heard about. Laid back and as long as it doesn't rain ya just run around outside doing interesting stuff. If you are going to take ecology, take the 3 weeks out of your summer to do it then.

Loved this class! Great teacher, interesting lectures, and easy A/B on his practicals as long as you study. Likes to have a wide variety of grades so not necessarily an easy class, but definitely worth taking because you walk away feeling like you've learned something.

Comment:

his class is not boring and his tests are based off old tests most times if not identical. i thought the lab practicals were the hardest part. mice are cool the first 2 or 3 times but eventually get old to listen to. I always looked forward to his class even though it was at 8. maybe the worst thing is ya gotta read the book or find an old test

He is probably my favorite professor I have this semester. He keeps class interesting and fun with his stories and "jokes"... kinda dry humor but it's cool. I didn't really think i'd enjoy taking biology in skool, but he makes it fun.

Comment:

I hate his class and wish it upon no one. The most useless class I've taken so far, besides PDP. I dont care about worms and mice and that kinda stuff and I found many of his comments to be offensive and unneccessary. If you have to take him I know what you have to go through and I pity you.
