Comment:

Very lecture oriented, be prepared to take a lot of notes and pay attention through the whole class time. Most of the answers on the tests are in the lecture notes, tests are all true and false questions. The grade for the class is based off tests and essays so it is very important to do well on the tests.

Comment:

This class is definitely intense, since it focuses on such a painful era in African-American history. Heningburg is the perfect professor for this course though. You can tell he's an expert, and he simultaneously commands respect while also being hilarious. Get ready to write very in-depth essays. Also, he allows note cards on the exams, thank God!

Comment:

Solid teacher, but didn't do a good job communicating outside of class. I took the class spring 2020 and he kinda went MIA after we switched online. His tests where very straightforward and mostly true false. But the major of the questions came from the reading.

His lessons are straight to the point, interesting, and detailed. He understands the material so well that he easily answer all the classes questions with greater insight. He has clear grading criteria, will always help you before/after class in his office or in the classroom and is very understanding. I want to take another one of his classes!

Comment:

Professor Heningburg was an absolute professor to take for his history class, ethnic studies, and any other class he is teaching. I like his learning style, only had 2 exams and that includes the final. He does have office hours and is there for his students as well. He wants the best and just do the work and reading and you should pass the class.

Comment:

This class couldve been so much more interesting and informative if I took it with a different professor.... Keith is super blase about this class and creates the vibe that he doesnt care, which runs off greatly on everyone. Attendance from students is outrageously; he takes attendance but doesnt really care it seems. Not intersectional at all

Enjoyed this class! As long as you take notes during lectures from his powerpoints and do your study guides, you should do well in this class. Only a couple papers due doing the semester but theyre super easy to complete. He is very passionate and will make class interesting!

Comment:

Come to class, participate(!!) and ask questions during lecture, use the powerpoints and study guides for exams, and do the extra credit.. There is no good reason NOT to get an A in this class. He explains well, and is super passionate about his teaching and students. The books are dull but important for understanding context.

Hands down to professor Heningburg! He's very passionate about the subject that he teaches. Make sure that your attend class because he will drop you. There are several reading assignments and test come straight from the book. You have weekly news articles to turn in and it's suggested to share in class. If you come to class you can get an A!!!

Prof. Heningburg is one of the most caring professors at SCC! He's a fair grader and even though he lectures every class, they're so interesting so you wont have to worry about nodding out. He says that he'll drop you after two absences, but he won't as long as you just keep him informed. The books aren't mandatory just hit the library a few times

Comment:

I had a love hate relationship with Professor Henningburg. Sometimes he can be nice. I can't say that I like his version of history in this class. He comes off as only wanting you to participate in the discussions if you agree with him or don't take away his shine. You can pass this class though, it's not too hard.

This was the best class and professor I've taken in a long time. His class was really eye opening and really made you think about life and how other culture are. This class was really easy there is a lot a reading but really straight forward. He gives you the essay prompts ahead of time to study and prepare for the test. Very helpfully.

Comment:

Was a great topic. The class was large and interested for a bit too. The problem came after the test. His grading rubric is terrible. He grades the three test you spend 90% of the semester talking about as only 10% each. That leaves, 35%- final. 30%- paper on a book that the entire class reads. Lastly there is a 5% meet and greet professor time.

Comment:

He is very good with explaining the material but makes this class more complicated than it needs to be. He has a set of online quizzes which are very hard to get a good grade on. They are hard to keep up with because of all the reading that is required in this class. He is also unclear about the term paper.

Comment:

Prof. Heningberg is a great guy, but lacks as a professor. I don't understand the structure nor the grading for his class and I think he makes it more complicated than needed. He makes you buy WAY too many textbooks and the study guides for his texts are horrible and don't prepare you at all.

A good teacher who understands what he is talking about and he enjoys talking about it. Don't let him intimidate you (shouldn't really even be intimidated). Do the work ahead when given. It'll help not stress you a lot.
