Dr. Hendershot was a great prof - very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The world history class was one that I looked forward to going to. Reasonable grader.

Great teacher, but his class is not easy. Your grade depends on two reading tests, the midterm, final, and a comprehensive research paper. His teaching methods are the best I've seen of a history prof. he is interesting and animated. He seems very passionate about his work and is easy to stay interested in.

You do not need to actually read the book or even buy it. he gives u a choice if you want to use the question from the book or the one from his online source thing...source thing = easy. the paper took me 20 mins to get a B on but most kids seem to drop instead of do it. the class was just mad easy and he was alot of fun to watch and listen to.

I?ve learned the most in this class this semester. History was never my thing but I liked how he taught it. He's nice and we could say what we wanted in discussions. He is a hard grader and alot of your grade is papers, but he will help you out and read rough drafts. No multiple choice questions?exams are essay too! Great class.

This guy is AWESOME. Take him if you can. He is excited and passionate about what he teaches, and he's a great story teller. He grades hard, but as long as you complete the paper and keep up on reading you'll do fine. I hated history before this class, and I actually learned something after taking him.

he is great man. he knows very well about history. Mr. Hendershot shows a great respect for all cultures.

Very willing to help, very pleasant to listen to. Good story teller. Seems like an intimidating class, but just keep up on your work. Responds to emails quickly. Willing to look at your rough draft and give suggestions. Knows his subject very well.

I think he knows who Tyler Durden is.

I took world history to 1500. I liked how he always talked about the gender roles in the cultures . . . that was nice to see especially for a male professor. The class was pretty hard but I thought it was good.

Hendershot is totally awesome . . . He?s somewhat crazy but he really knows his stuff. I?ve taken a lot of history classes but this is one of the best. Also if you ask he will read your rough draft and tell you what to fix for the final draft. Take good notes because you?ll need them.

This was a great class and a great professor to have. He made me work hard and I learned a lot about history and writing. He is a good person and you can tell that what he does is very important to him. That is all I have to say.

I love this class. He is great - knows tons of things and tells history in a very interesting way. This class should be required.

He Goes from monotone to BOOMING loud.Gets really excited about what he's teaching,although for the most part it is not by any means exciting.He's going to want you to write a long paper based on a specific pattern in history from 1500-present.You have 2 suprise quizzes on the reading assignments,midterm and final.Lectures for WHOLE hour and a half

I've taken both world history classes now and they are the best. Hendershot knows what he's talking about and his enthusiasm is contagious. Enthusiastic doesn't cover it - you remember on Sesamie Street when the Cookie Monster would eat the cookies? Well, Hendershot is the History Monster! Warning . . . this prof does not suffer fools!

Great lectures, very informative. He knows what he's talking about. Be sure to mot miss many classes and study for tests. Really study not just read the notes. A lot of out of class work.

I always heard good things about this prof so I took his class and now I can see why. You will learn a ton of things in this class and it will make you think. Very good especially if you like history. Also, our class had the best discussions :) The class is hard but he is fair and tells you how to do everything he wants you to do for assignments.

This was a great class and I was actually a little sad when it ended because I liked it so much (and the prof too). I felt lucky to have taken it and I still think about it so yes I would have to say take it if you can.

Had telecourse class with him. READ THE STUDY GUIDE QUESTIONS AND MEMORIZE THEM@!!! The questions are exactly the same as those on the test.

Class took alot of critical thinking but he was very helpful in class and answered any question. Make sure to take good notes.

I have a different prof for History this semester (not at GRCC) and miss being in Dr. Hendershot's class. He does talk for the whole time, but the time goes fast because he loves what he is doing! Made me enjoy history!

I wasn't expecting a class of this caliber at CC. Probably the most intelligent person I've ever met and the best teacher I've ever had. He expects you to read and do work, but he treats students with respect.

Dr. Hendershot is a brilliant man. The tests and paper are really hard, so you have to keep up on the reading. Before this class I had no interest in history but he kept the class really energetic. He can get carried away and lose you during his lectures, but he is so welcoming toward questions and comments.

This was an awesome class. Hendershot is a very good prof. because he really cares about what he teaches and his style is easy to follow. Lots of good stories! Also because he will go out of his way to help people learn the material. Essay exams are hard but you get to see the questions one week before the exam.

This was definitely the best class I've had at GRCC. This prof. is professional, energetic, and also passionate about everything he teaches. I never cared about history much before, but this class was an amazing experience.

It has been awhile since I had this professor, but it was one of the best classes I had in college. He is not crazy; it is just that sanity seems crazy to some in an insane world. Like I said, he is what the Jews (my people) call a 'mensch.'

I took him for a full year and I loved it. He makes History fun and he practically begs for class participation and discussion. He professional and extremely bright also. Take him!

Very good professor, although you have lots of reading and also papers to do out of class. He is not exactly 'hot' but I would say that he is definitely attractive. Plus he has got broad shoulders and I like that.

I loved this class. He's totally suave.

I concur about the suave factor. Dr. Hendershot is a very well put together man and he knows his stuff! The man is brilliant.

You have to do the readings. He teaches more like at a 4 yr university rather than most of the other community college profs. The whole grade is based on two tests and one research paper. He'll make you think!! But he is VERY easy to look at, uh I mean, liston to. LOL

He is a awesome teacher and you will learn a ton in his class. My friends and I really liked his teaching style. 100% American badass.

Amazing teacher. When he first comes to class he seems like he?s tired. Then he starts to talk. Best lectures I?ve ever had. He gets excited and brilliant and the class has to struggle to keep up. He can sometimes be very funny too. My hand hurts from writing so much by the end.

rof. Hendershot is very entertaining, clearly passionate, and expects a lot from students. Requires you to show up and pay attention. 2 unannounced quizzes, 2 exams and one 10 page research paper. The paper was challenging, but doable. Is not as harsh as he sounds in the syllabus, and will make certain allowances if you're ill, etc.

I liked this class, which I took online. Got to learn a lot about the 20th century and it is very interesting material. He always answered my emails and was very clear with instructions.

Professors lectures are somewhat entertaining. He promotes class discussion and will listen to peoples ideas and thoughts(even if they are way off base) Do what he asks and you will be fine.

Took him for an online class. Interesting subject. I thought he was helpful and he always answered emails fast. And he went out of his way to help me understand everything. I liked the class.

Not the class you want to take if you want an easy A. If you want a blow off class, you won't do well. I liked the class, did the work, and did fine. Don't listen to the whiners.

I don't usually like online classes, but his was really good. I think the biggest problem is the discussion boards, because a lot of people didn't seem to want to do them, but his comments were always really helpful and he was easy to get ahold of. Just don't think that that it won't take any work or you don't have post a lot to do well.

I loved loved LOVED this class and teacher. The exams and papers took more work in this class than my English classes in college, but it was a very good experience.

He has tons of enthusiasm for what he teaches and I really appreciate that. The material is interesting, and you will learn a ton of things. I say take this class and prof if you can.

My favorite Hendershot quote: "In every century since 1500, and on every continent, the main lesson of history is the same: Do not trust large groups of white people that you do not know." So true. Awesome class.

The class was very interesting, and he did a great job teaching. It was a very difficult class he expected you to know everything he taught. It was a good class but don't take it unless your very motivated and have a very good memory

Lots of work, but this was the best history class I've ever had. He is very intelligent, funny and a great lecturer. Treats people with respect.

Hendershot is awesome, and you'll learn tons in his class. Everybody knows that.

Excellent professor who is passionate about what he does- refreshing change from other profs. Helpful. He gets really excited while he talks and is into the material. However... I didn't expect an easy A, but I didn't expect the TON of stress it caused either. Overwhelming amt of material to study for tests. Interesting class turned headache.

This was a very good class. It actually felt like a real college class, and not like a high school class like many of my other classes. I learned a lot of history that I didn't know before (not US history), and I'm glad I took it even though it will probably be my only history class.

He is a very hard teacher. Make sure you take good notes.

I liked the class a lot. He's smart, funny and easy on the eyes.

I learned so much in this class! Take good notes from his lectures. He likes it when we participate, it's a part of your grade so make sure you keep up with the readings! He is passionate about his career and it's pretty obvious. I had fun doing the research paper. He's quite handsome as well! Okay...he's beautiful!

Great teacher

I went to Ireland on a study trip with this prof. and others about a year ago and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I never thought I'd get the chance to do something like that at a CC. Wish I could have gone again this year.

One of the best teachers I had at GRCC. His class was tough but I learned a lot about the world. You have to write a paper and the exams are all essay.

Great teacher. I loved his class and it turned out to be more relevant than I thought it would be. I took notes until my hand hurt every day, but I wanted to write down everything he taught us. Amazingly, everything he says is true. I know because I checked.

Great professor. A little scary. Do the reading or you don't stand a chance. Everything is about causation with him. Good Luck!

Prof. Hendershot is probably one of the best professors I've had at GRCC because he challenged me in ways that I can't begin to describe. He doesn't treat his class like a bunch of high schoolers, which is a nice change. He makes class interesting, and his looks are a great motivator to do well in class!!!

A little scary? Ha Ha. Before the boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks his closet for Robert Hendershot! Its mostly that he demands excellence from us in our exams and essays, and some people find that intimidating. He's actually really nice and helpful if you ask. Good teacher.

Absolutely my favorite professor by far at this college. Very demanding, but in terms of learning and changing how I think about the world, and how I approach other classes in college it is the best class I have taken so far outside of science courses. He is a brilliant thinker and a helpful instructor.

I've taken just about every history class, and I must say that this one was the best. Everyone knows he is a hard grader and has high standards, but he will help you learn how to write a better paper. His class helps you see how everything in history was important.

He grades the paper pretty tough, but I thought he graded the 2 exams fairly easy. You read the entire book and write a ton of notes. Your notes will be very important, so write everything. His biggest flaw: he gives u the exam review 1 week before the exam which is hardly enough time to complete it and study it, which is very stressful.

One of the best quality classes and professors at grcc. Probably the toughest class I had last semester, but it was also the one where I learned the most. He's pretty hardcore, but you will like him if you are in college to get a real education.

Really fun guy who knows what he's talking about. Pretty tough on the exams, but not unfair. Very good professor. Take his class if you can.

He is a very smart professor who is obviously passionate about history and teaching. He is much more patient with some particular students than I could ever be. Overall, it's a great class. My advice- keep up on the readings and start your paper early or you'll probably end up dropping!

Really passionate about history and it rubs off on his students. Very knowledgable and lecture is like listening to a story. Very interesting. Tests are tough so show up to class. Sometimes he can seem arrogant/pretentious.

I always loved coming to class! I would recommend starting your paper super early so you have time to find the right sources. The tests are difficult, but you really learn a lot about history because of it. He's super smart and really engages with the class. He tends to be a hard grader though.

Prof Hendershot is very passionate about his job! The paper was very challenging. His exams are tough and it is essential that you attend ALL classes. If you miss one, you will be lost! With all of this being said, I would still take his class again. It challenged me but made me actually enjoy history.

Love Hendershot so much. This class was awesome. He's really nice and super funny, and you can tell he loves history. You do have to do the reading, though.

Pretty solid online class. You have to do the readings and post on at least three days of the week. He actually participates in the forums with us which is nice. Reasonable grader, but you have to follow all the instructions to get a good grade.

This was a challenging class for me but he is an awesome professor who always answered his emails quickly (more than I can say for some other profs) and even met with me during his office hours to teach me how to do better on my posts and exams. Very patient and helpful person.

The best prof I've ever had at grcc. His class is tough but totally worth it.

Mr. Hendershot is truly a great teacher. His passion to teach history is incomparable. He teaches history well, too. You MUST read your history text book in this class 100%. I do not recommend this class for first semester college students. I wasn't prepared in that regard. Worthwhile class!

Excellent professor. Very difficult but very passionate about history. Would suggest taking him on campus rather than online. He makes history very interesting and is easily the best history professor I've had before. Read the textbook and study hard and you'll do well in his classes.

I love Hendershot because he's a real college professor. He is very dedicated to what he teaches and pushes his students hard. I always learn a lot in his class. My advice is to start all the work early - he has little patience for people's excuses and stupid questions.

Hendershot is very committed to Irish history and I appreciate that. He also has lots of stories and personal experiences that make lecture interesting, and he likes the class to ask questions. The research paper was tough but also pretty interesting - he even lent me some of his own books to help me get started which was nice.

OK BEST PROF EVER!! seriously though he is fantastic, tells you everything you need to know for the test. You NEED to study, read the text book, and start early on the paper.so worth it though, best I have ever had. He is so smart and helps you with the paper, very easy to talk to. Do the work, take good notes and you will get an A.LOVED HIM!

Prof. Hendershot is the best professor I have ever had. His passion for history is clearly expressed in the classroom. This class is very difficult and the material is extensive but nevertheless quite intriguing. I'm so happy I took this course with this professor. I now, too, have a deep appreciation for history! This class is worth the hard work!

Extremely helpful professor. Is willing to spend extra time with students to help them succeed. Proof read and edited my paper for his class before it was due. How many profs do that? HOWEVER, his classes are not easy. Be prepared to be challenged and put forth the effort. Very interesting and is passionate about history.

Very good online teacher. He is always very clear about what you have to accomplish each week, and he always gives us feedback on our assignments. He also is good with email, which is a big plus for an online prof!

Dr. Hendershot is an excellent professor. I went in needing a History credit to transfer out and left with a knowledge of Irish history. His stories are poignant and informative and he doesn't focus too much on the textbook. One warning: There is a massive paper project. If you take this class, get to work immediately. You won't regret it.

Hendershot is the best professor. Treats his students like adults, and holds us to a high standard. His class is tough but also very enlightening. Not an easy A, but if you want a real college history class then look no further.

Good teacher, needs a bit more quizzes and tests than just larger projects.

This professor was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and very professional. He read several drafts of my research paper and enjoyed answering the questions asked in class periods. I know a lot about world history now. Be sure you read the book every week because he does give you quizzes!

Dr. Hendershot is a phenomenal prof and brings history to vivid life with his enthusiasm. He's one of GRCC's biggest assets and I can't imagine taking a history course with anything less than the likes of him. His intoxicating charisma came off as inhuman, some days. A word to the wise: only take this course if you can keep up with the heavy work.

Dr. Hendershot is the best professor I’ve had at GRCC. He incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about history. He is also very approachable and eager to help students and answer questions. However, he is very challenging. This was probably the hardest class I’ve had at GRCC and I thought preparing for the exams was stressful.

This was a very clearly structured online class, which I appreciated because I've had other online classes which lacked clear structure and guidelines. He always answered emails pretty quickly, and gave us feedback on forums and the midterm exam. Good online class experience.

I have never learned more In a semester. His slides are worthless, anything he writes on the board you WILL need, and try to take notes on EVERYTHING he says, make sure it is organized... Exams are ridiculously hard, and require 30 - 40 pages of notes and 12-18 hours just to complete the study guide.

Great class with a professional and helpful professor. This class covers mostly the the Great Depression and the World Wars, so if you are interested in those things then this would be a good class for you. Follow the professor's instructions and you can get an A.

Hendershot is the best prof any way you look at it. I've taken several of his classes now, but this was the first online class. It was very interesting and the assignments were logical - a good experience...though perhaps not as much fun as his lecture classes. If you want an online history class then go for it!

Dr. Hendershot is wonderful at making your time in class interesting, but is definitely a hard grader. He tells great stories about history that will keep you engaged, & will help you remember the terms on the test. Don't bother with the textbook. It is useless. Just take good notes during class and make sure you know every term for the exams.

Not as hard as people say as long as you take notes in class and do the readings. He is a fantastic professor who really knows his subject! You won't be sorry if you take a class from him.

Hands down the best professor and best class I ever had. I always enjoyed going to this class, and there were days that totally blew my mind and made me see things very differently than I had before. How many classes can you say that for?

It was an online class during the summer. Interesting materials, and the prof was clear with his instructions and feedback on forum posts and midterm exams. He also sent put regular reminders about assignments and due dates though email, which I always appreciated because it can be easy procrastinate and loose focus in an online class.

He is the best professor at GRCC. I can definitely recommend this class, and plan to take another one of his classes next semester.

I took two classes with Hendershot, and one was part of the now defunct Irish Studies program. Essentially, he's the kind of professor who can change your life and you don't realize how amazing of a teacher he is until later on. I still consider him the best professor I've ever had, even now, with my Bachelors degree.

This was the most worth while class I took this semester. Learned tons. He is a great teacher and helpful when you ask - a real college professor with little patience for slackers or losers, but he wants you to succeed, likes questions, and read several rough drafts of my paper and helped me a lot.

Hendershot loves History. He is a tough grader, but with that he is a fair grader. Follow his guidelines, do the exam reviews (even if it takes you 16 pages of notebook) attend class regularly, and take good notes. The two exams and paper is hard, but if you actually put the effort in you will be fine. WARNING. DO NOT TAKE IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE LAZY.

THE BEST! I never knew how interesting a history class could be. Worth every penny. I guarantee you will not regret taking him. He has anecdotes for just about every chapter from his own research. Every class was worth going. A very fun class; have the habit to miss class or come in late... good luck.

I really liked taking this class with this prof. It wasn't as hard as some people seem to think. Just go to class, take notes, read the books, and follow his instructions for assignments and you will get a good grade. Plus he's very helpful when you email or go to office hours. Interesting material - made me want to take another history class.

I'm at GVSU now, but taking this history class with Hendershot at GRCC was really the only class I took there that really challenged me and got me ready to transfer and write real college papers. Take any class with him you can!

Hendershot is a tough teacher but is willing to help you every step of the way. There are two exams which are tough but not impossible. One paper that is rather difficult and two pop quizzes that are very easy. If i could I would take him again.

So happy GRCC offers this class and that Hendershot is the one teaching it! Latin American history is fascinating and important and often doesn't get enough attention. This professor is very knowledgable and dedicated to the material, and he wants to help his students succeed. PS This class also teaches you how to write college research papers!

This was probably the best online class I have taken so far. Very clearly organized and the prof participates with the class by posting in the forum discussions. The class is mostly about the world wars, the great depression, imperialism and revolutions. If you are interested in those things then this would be a good class for you.

He is the most passionate teacher I have had, but If you can't manage yourself, you will fail. He doesn't like to give out A's, but he isn't nessasarily a tough grader. With that said, the 2 tests in his classes were the hardest tests I have ever taken in my life. I had to write a full 35 pages of notes (for 1 test) to complete his review.

Pretty solid all around class. Decent readings and interesting material. Prof answered emails quickly. No complaints.

If you are serious about your education, Hendershot is one of the profs you definitely want to take. I learned so much in his classes at GRCC! He read many drafts of my paper and helped me become a much better writer. Tests were tough but he gives you the essay questions to study a week before the exams so you know what you are up against. TAKE

Professor Hendershot is very serious about his material. He provides his students with a great amount of material to learn -- so much that it can be overwhelming if you do not plan ahead. I feel that I learned valuable historical lessons in this class, mainly regarding fascism and communism. If you prefer easy classes, this is not for you.

You HAVE to read/watch the assigned materials to do well on discussions, quizzes, and the two exams. Make an honest effort, get a good grade. I am HORRIBLE with history, but I got 90-100% consistently bc I tried really hard to understand. I liked this professor and course, and even more so after I realized how cute he is.

Very smart and confident - enthusiast. Every lecture is a tour de force. I learned a lot, and I loved the class, but I'm an older student and this class is not for slackers. Hendershot is very nice and patient, even with the morons, but his class is a lot of work. Start the paper early or you will fail.

If you don't attend class, don't expect to do well on the midterm or finals. Take a lot of notes in class on everything, makes studying for the exams easier. He lectures by talking with bulletpoints on the powerpoint, but he is very engaging and is really passionate about the subject. Would love to have him again.

Dr. Hendershot is a great professor and lecturer. He is passionate about the material and it makes lecture worthwhile ( besides his great looks). Reading and attendance is imperative in getting a good grade. He has powerpoints but what he has to say is much more important to put in your notes. Write everything so you can do well on the exams.

Professor Hendershot is very passionate about this subject. The class will be difficult if you are not prepared so READ AND TAKE NOTES! Attendance is also a must. Participation matters. Written pop quizzes. You should be VERY specific about the topic on tests since it's written. Don't half-ass this class because you will fail if you do.

This was one of the most challenging classes I've had at GRCC, but it was definitely worth it. Learned tons and his lectures were interesting. Hendershot is very professional about history and enthusiastic about his material. He answers emails and keeps office hours for when you have questions or want feedback on your paper. Good teacher.

Prof. Hendershot is definitely my favorite professor at GRCC. He's incredibly helpful towards students who're ready to work. He was very accommodating to help me with my essay several times outside of office hours. He's very passionate about what he does, and his lectures are full of information that will be on all tests. Keep up on the readings.

Dr. Hendershot has genius intelligence, a great lecturer and professor, and fun to look at. He helped me become a better writer and I miss his class. Not as difficult as some people say, but be prepared to work.

Hendershot is an excellent professor. He's very passionate about what he teaches and is always available to help you. Our grade was based on a midterm, final, paper, & two pop quizzes. Be prepared to work hard and keep up on the reading because you cannot afford to bomb any of those. Make sure you pay attention to details, plus nothing is mc

Professor Hendershot is so smart and funny and hot. You are responsible for some heavy reading and one intensive research paper but his lectures make it all worth it. Take his class if you actually want to learn things. Commit to being there every day and you will be just fine.

Great professor, really intense though. I took this class straight out of high school and it definitely was a wake up call. Take notes, and lots of them. He tells you what you need to know, but he won't baby you. You pass the class if you do the work outside of class. It was a really interesting class and I learned a lot, he is a good lecturer.

Professor Hendershot is an amazing professor! One of the best I've ever had at CC. He makes learning interesting with his lectures and is very clear on his grading criteria and what he expects from you. Has high standards for every student but is willing to help anyone and everyone along the way! Definitely recommend taking his class.

He's extremely eloquent and educated, which helps when it comes to providing a conversation. He also enjoys a good discussion amongst students and greatly encourages participation (it's part of your grade, too).

Overall quality professor, hilarious guy. I never thought I would say this but I wish there were a few more assignments throughout the semester. The research paper is a little too intense, determined a huge portion of your grade. Very interesting lectures

This is a 100 level course but felt much more difficult. I'm a business major with very little history interest. He grades extremely hard. I'm a 3-3.5 GPA student and dropped this class due to doing poorly on the midterm. Theres a midterm, final, 2 pop quizzes and an essay that determines your grade. Best of luck to you if you aren't a history buff

Hendershot is probably the best professor I have ever had. You can tell he loves his job and the material he teaches. He is extremely knowledgeable and his lectures are always fascinating. Enjoys questions in class. Be ready to work in this class. Take detailed notes, do the readings, and start the paper early or you will fail.

Hendershot is an excellent professor. His lectures were always interesting and he is very serious about history and making sure everyone understands. He also read drafts of my research paper and I learned a lot this semester. Do the readings, follow all instructions, and you will be okay.

Solid online class. Clear instructions and due dates for everything. Prof always answered emails quickly and was very helpful.

If youre intelligent and want to learn about world history, then this is the prof for you. Love Hendershot!

Dr. Hendershot was one of best professors I ever had, either at GRCC or at GVSU. He expects a lot of each student but is willing to help you every step of the way. He is a great lecturer and I really learned a lot in his classes.

A good prof, good lectures, makes u work for grade tho. He responds to emails fairly quickly better at night than during the day. Lots of material is given during the lecture, also exams actually use the course documents. Don't f up on 1 grade otherwise ur whole grade is tanked. Really hard for a gen ed

Lectures are so so SO great- he should be educating the general public on a larger scale like on talk shows or some kind of Netflix special. He is really something.

Best professor I ever had.

Not a bad choice if you need a Gen Ed credit. I took this class online and it's the usual online work: discussion boards 3 times/week, quizzes every few weeks, lots of reading. His quiz questions come from the book. He's a tough grader so be sure to follow the discussion board directions.

Hendershot is a wonderful teacher. All the class is really interesting. He is Very understanding and always helpful. Enjoys questions. Maybe not the easiest class, but if you have a brain youll get a lot out of it.

Great professor. High recommend his class if you get the opportunity.

Attendance is KEY for passing, as your grade can lower with too many absences. There's only 7 things he actually grades throughout the semester, participation being one of them. He loves to answer questions, and sometimes can go on tangents, though they are still relevant to the course. Don't slack off on the semester-long paper, or you'll do bad.

He is serious about history but his lectures are interesting to follow and i like the way he always explain why things are important. Makes the information easier to remember. Take notes. Tests are essay but you get the questions beforehand on blackboard. the paper was a challenge but he will read your rough draft and tell you how to write better.

Hendershot is the best lecturer I have ever witnessed. Every class is full of info and analysis. I learned so much about world history in his classes. Hes a published author, a professional editor, and a caring professor who will go out of his way to help you succeed. His classes werent easy, but they were both worth all the work.

I miss being in Hendershot's class - always interesting and memorable. There is lots of reading and work but he is a good professor, always replies to my emails quickly and is very helpful.

Dr. Hendershot is a genius when it comes to history. He doesn't need any notes when he gives lectures. He literally knows it all. If you're someone who learns best from listening and taking notes, this class could be for you. However, you CANNOT pass without reading the book. Your grade depends on 2 quizzes, 2 tests, and a research paper. Tough.

Prof. Hendershot doesnt mess around. Kicked a kid out of class for coming in one minute late, it was great. He is a fantastic lecturer and gives great feedback. If you are planning to transfer to a four year institution, especially in the social sciences or humanities, take this class.

This prof's lectures are very good and interesting. He always replies to emails quickly and is helpful. Assignment instructions always clear - make sure you follow them to the letter. Glad I took this class.

This was one of the best history classes I've taken, even though it was online b/c of Rona. Quality professor who always answered emails and had good online lectures. Make sure you do the reading before doing the forum essays.

Amazing professor with solid online lectures. Assignments are not often but are worth a ton. 10/10

Lectures are interesting and assignments are clearly defined in the syllabus and blackboard. Pay attention and take notes and its an easy pass. Put in some effort and it's an easy A.

Clearly laid out his expectations and followed a simple schedule of doing the readings, watching his lecture, and then making a discussion post every other week. His lectures were thoughtful and sometimes entertaining. The readings are pretty long so dont procrastinate them because it will be hard to catch up.

Best professor I've had in college.

Professor Hendershot's class was great. I learned a ton about world history and seriously enjoyed each day in class. You can tell he loves his job. Lots of lecture but appreciates when students ask good questions. He always replied to email and had detailed instructions for the assignments like the research paper and exams.

Proffesor Hendershot is an extremely passionate history person and does a great job at lectures. He provides exam outlines 2 weeks prior to the exam. However he is a bit harsh on grading not sure if anyone ever received a 100. All and all a nice guy though.

Professor Hendershot genuinely enjoyed preaching the content of the course. He was obviously very interested in the content and had no qualms about going into depth, and it got me to be interested as well. The work load is significant but manageable if enough time is set aside. Great experience, would highly recommend:)

I think everyone in my class (including me) appreciates Dr. Hendershot. He does a good job with lecturing, always replies to email, clear instructions, likes questions, he can sometimes be funny. Tests and quizzes are not easy, so be sure to take notes and do the readings in the syllabus.

Reading and writing is about 95% of the class, but he provides a reading schedule at the beginning of the semester. Don't take the online class if you hate discussion boards. Grading and expectations are very clear and fair, get ready to work hard and cite your sources! Lectures are long but it's clear he knows what he's talking about.

a lot of reading make sure you do them because it will help you with reading quizzes. participation points are crucial. He will give you an 8-page essay DO NOT WAIT TILL THE LAST MINUTE. Syllabus will be your best friend.

I really enjoyed my time with Mr Hendershot. His lectures are entertaining and he has a great sense of humor. He's happy to answer any questions asked by students during lecture. As long as you do the weekly reading assignments, don't procrastinate on the research paper, and study for the exams and reading quizzes like any other class, you'll pass.

Dr. Hendershot is a very good professor. He obviously likes his job and his enthusiasm helped me learn. He's serious but can be funny too. Also was very helpful when I contacted him over email, and he gave feedback on my rough draft which was a big help to me.

Yes he has high standards and expects a lot of you but he is willing and will go out of his way to help you if needed. He's serious about history but can be funny too. Really knows what he's talking about might not have been the easiest class I've taken but worth it in the end which got me to work harder and challenged me for history

He's not as hard as many say he is. He wants to work for your grade but will help you in any way and takes the time to answer everyone's questions.

Dr Hendershot is a real genius with history. Take his class if you actually want to learn things, he takes the time to answer everyone's questions. He is a tough teacher but also caring and will go out his way to help you and always replies to emails and is very understanding.

He will tell you everything you need to know and will treat students like adults. He has high standards and does not like students being late but with that being said he wants you to succeed is very helpful answers quick to emails will go out of his way to help you and happy to answer anyones questions

Great professor willing to help students and is really funny

Great professor really nice guy knows what he is talking about and is willing to help you during office hours

Assignments include a one-page discussion post and two responses to two different students each week along with viewing lectures and at least a two-page essay every week. Discussion posts, responses, and essays all have specific requirements and strict formats. Despite this, he was a great teacher with very entertaining lectures.

This professer knows all things history and is happy to answer any questions students may have. Always answers email and is very understanding and helpful.

Hes tough but fair understanding and helpful> Easy to get ahold of if you need help

He is the hardest grader I have ever had, he is happy to share history with you. He wants you to succeed. You may cry and have imposter syndrome in his class. He is tough but it was one of the most sastifying classes I have ever taken. I have learned so much! Take inititve, speak up, he will not make you feel dumb.

Great professor who will challenge you in history and make you work for your grade but at the same time he's happy to answer any questions you have and will not make you feel dumb and is very nice and willing to help you in any way.

Great professor and who really knows his stuff and is passionate for history and his job. He is willing to spent extra time with students to help them and is very understanding. Great guy to have as a teacher.

Professor Hendershot is great and you can tell he loves the subject. He is a tough grader but gives good feedback. Make sure you stay on top of readings for the pop reading quiz. In my class they were given the weeks before the midterm and final exams.

Great and nice teacher. He is very patient and is willing to spend quality time with students if they need him or any help.

Professor Hendershoot is one of the better professors I've had in my college career. While the class is not easy (Prepare to do a lot of reading), he is very clear on what he wants and how he wants you to do it. If you follow his instructions, do the reading, and study, you will pass his class.
