Comment:
Henry Bouchelle is a wonderful person. He explains concepts very well; however, he seems to speak in a world apart from the college education system. While he was very clear about his commentary, he was very unclear about test material. An excellent survey, PHYS139 has a great design in mind. In practice, it lacked testable coherence.

Enthusiastic about what he teaches :) I was hoping we would get to go outside since the course was at night but most of lectures were during the winter so it was too cold and cloudy. Attendance isn't mandatory but recommended. Tests are almost an exact copy of previous ones, so study the old exams in the physics library! Easy A 1 credit course.

75% attendance, B in class.Such a pain going on Thursday nights for a 1cr class. Easiest exams I've taken since high school but you do need to make copies of the old exams from the physics library. Highly recommended for the 1 credit if you need it if you don't mind wasting part of your thursday night.

Easy 1 credit A. Two exams, answers are in the physics library before hand. Explains thinks well. Very simple concepts to grasp.

Comment:
Pretty funny and knowledgeable. Check out old exams - they're a little useful. However, sometimes he puts q's on his exams that he never covered, so watch out. If you just want to take the class for fun and maybe know a little about stars, I suggest take it. But don't take this for an easy A, because he can throw in curveball q's.

Comment:
He is the worst prof I've ever had in college. The material is super easy, he just sucks. All he does is ask the class about the bolded words in the book and then restates the person's answer. Most of the time he tells you what the term "is not" or an example of the term instead of an explanation. Lecture is pointless. Avoid him at all costs.

Comment:
I took Astronomy in High school & can honestly say this class didnt cover anything important, so boring! He's a nice, funny guy, so I feel bad saying all this, but the class material is too broad and pointless. The exams are incoherent! some questions weren't even comprehensible sentences- I'll post an ex. later when I dig up my exam.

Definitely one of the more quirky professors I've had. His lectures are boring at times, but he's really knowledgeable about astronomy and is more than willing to help you understand the subject. Tests are ridiculously easy, provided you regularly go to class.

good guy, but material is really basic so if you're really serious about astronomy i wouldn't reccomend it you might be bored but i enjoyed it...study old exams and you'll do very well...easy A if you fail you have shamed the human race's ability to think

This guy is really boring, he takes attendance and he makes you feel stupid for asking questions. You have to go to class, and study the notes, the book isnt that important though.

Comment:
Very interesting class. You do have to study some, especially if you are not a science major, but how much easier can it get than making last semester's exams available to you and having very similar if not identical questions? The professor himself is enamored of his subject matter - always a plus in my opinion.

Comment:
Horrible class!! His lectures are the same that he gives to his elementary students. It's an easy A but NOT WORTH YOUR TIME at 8pm on Thursday. Go out and bong a beer instead; you'll probably learn more about astronomy that way. He repeats things as if we didn't hear it the first 6 times.

Hank is a pretty funny guy and he really loves stars. He's a pretty good teacher and I learned some cool facts. Still, who wants to go back to class at 8:00 on a Thursday? And the tests are annoying and not easy. It's a fun class, but definately NOT an easy A.

this class sucks. definitly thought it was gonna be a easy A, but test is so hard and long for a 1 credit class. Do not take unless you are interested in star and constellation identification. agonizingly boring and mundane.
