Awesome professor who makes learning the material fun but you still get the educational benefit as well! She is so sweet and understanding. I see her as "Madea" lol. If she doesn't have any more water in her cup then class is dismissed. I wouldn't miss class because she gives all the test questions/answers. Take her, you won't regret it!!

Attendance isn't mandatory but is recommended. Very nice lady, knows her stuff, she's funny and interesting. Tests are a mix of mostly lecture and some book. I have her for another class next semester and I'm not worried at all. Solid professor for sure!

Nice lady. Class was not overly difficult. If you go to class and listen it helps. Posted her Powerpoints online. Gives you a review to fill out before the Exam. If you just apply yourself you can make an A.

Class is really easy to sit through. Don't recommend taking MWF 8am, I only attended about 2/3rd's of the total classes. Gives extra credit to exams on low attendance days. Exams are simply if you do the review and read over powerpoints. I definitely recommend!

I love professor Henson!!! She is a great teacher and person, truly cares about students!! She is retiring after this semester, but will teach a class here or there. If you're able to take one of her classes, do it!!!

A professor I'll always remember. She usually never had class for the full amount of time. The class is very vague and dull at points but she has a good sense of humor. Very sweet lady.

Attendance isn't mandatory, but she does take role most days. I recommend not taking this class MWF at 8am like I did. Otherwise the class is pretty easy if you just study the court cases and the lecture notes. She posts powerpoints online and gives study guides for the tests. No homework at all. 3 tests, final isnt cumulative. Shes really nice too

Dr. H is extremely funny and helpful. Her class is engaging and she loves class discussions. I have yet to really use the book. Just go to class and take notes and study them for the 3 tests. I highly recommend taking her, she is one of my favorite professors.

Great teacher. She's funny and keeps things interesting. I loved her class. If anyone had a question she would help answer as best she could. I plan on taking one of her classes again.

she is very nice and random. class can get dull. puts the notes online and gives reviews for each test. tests can be harder than you think, but still not too bad. dont need the book. doesnt curve or give extra credit. goes off on random stroies a lot, can be entertaining tho.

Dr. Henson is a great teacher. She is interesting and cares about the subject matter. Her class can be an easy class, but you have to make the effort to actually go and take notes.
