Henny is the man. He uses philosophical lectures to metaphorical explain things. It might be rough at time, but he is super cool and a must take.

He is so sweet. Responds usually in the same day or a day after. I can tell he really cares about his students. He conveys the subject well and there isnt a moment where I feel its too vague. Genuinely a good person and very fun to go to his lectures because of his stories he integrates into the lectures. Highly Recommend

Prof. Hendrickson is a really cool guy. He's like a fun uncle. He's super intelligent, like it's intimidating at times, but he's really down to earth and an amazing story teller. He does drone on and repeat himself, but he's a solid guy and solid professor. His class is hard (IA), but that's because IA is hard.

The better IA professor. He gave fun lectures about his family and related it back to the class. He always came to class with a smile and interacted with the class. Moderately hard class with lots of reading and writing.

If youre an IA student, I don't know why you're here, you have to take him. Also hes the best I love his classes . Don't wait until the last minutes to start the assignments because they will take you all night.

Love Hendrickson. Ive taken him for multiple semesters and hes definitely one of the best IA professors. In all of his classes he teaches different methods for analysis, which can be dry at times but he makes it interesting enough. There arent a lot of grades, but when he does have them they are writing heavy.

Very nice guy. His class has 3 presentations which aren't graded very hard, and he is also clear on his expectations for the assignments. Responds to emails very quickly.

Hendrickson has very awkward humor but I found it halrious. Easy class with great feedback, his handwriting can be difficult to read so be sure to ask.

So nice and the content of the class is always interesting. It hard for him to keep us engaged 100%. As a former IA director he seemed to wipe his hands clean of other responsibilities in the program. I think it's a shame given how many innovative ideas he has based on his research. If only he was more engaged with the students and cared a bit more

Awesome! He's great. Lectures tend to get boring, but all in all a great professor. 3 briefs and 1 reflection paper. Responds quickly to emails. Talks about his family a lot in context to class.

Prof Hendrickson is awesome! Really cares about his students and teaches them everything they need to succeed. No textbook just important handouts that you get by going to class.

Awe such a good teacher! Noel is the man for real. He knows what he wants and makes it pretty clear. The material can be tough but just go to class, it's so worth it. He gives very organized lectures with LOTS of handouts and charts galore. A cool dude to know. Hes always there to help if you have a question, he'll rephrase for you to understand it

He is an super philosophical teacher teaching IA classes, which is a double edged sword at times. He knows what hes teaching, but that doesn't always mean you will know what he's talking about. He will always super formal with his work and students, so don't expect to "befriend" him. Which is such a shame, with the wonderful stories he shares.

Great class, he's a great teacher (although not always clear on what he's looking for). He is willing to help students if you ask. Don't expect him to come to you.

Be prepared to think a lot about each assignment as they are basically the entirety of your grade. He is very passionate about the IA program.

Oh Noel. He is cooky and crazy and unlike any prof I've ever had. He cares about the program and wants people to do well, so its not hard. He is incredibly smart, but intolerably awkward. Hard to describe in words, I'll just say that attendance is not mandatory and his classes are repetitive, but I find myself WANTING to go to them.
