That is the class itself, averaged across everyone who taught it. Who taught it, and how each of them scored, is the board below — that is what a student picking a section is actually choosing between.
Boston College's own “intellectually challenging” question for this class only — students answer it positively about courses that stretched them, so it measures intellectual challenge and NOT grading, workload or quality. Almost every BC class scores high on it, which is why it is shown as a rank rather than a score.
Boston College reports workload for this class only as one of five bands, not as a number of hours, and it does not publish what the bands mean — so this site will not translate it into hours. Higher means more work, which is not the same as worse.
There are many health and environmental impacts associated with consumption activities, yet such impacts often remain hidden or obscured in the course of everyday life. In this applied course, students will examine health and environmental issues associated with consumption activities. Over the course of the semester, students will learn concepts from environmental health, environmental sociology, the sociology of consumption, and public policy. Each student will engage in an original preliminary research project on a contemporary issue related to consumption and environmental health. Students will develop an understanding of the power dynamics and inequalities associated with identifying, defining, managing, and mitigating the health and environmental impacts of consumption activities. Skills, perspectives, and analytic frameworks learned in this course will be useful for students in their roles as individual consumers, citizens, and professionals.

All of themThe line
All 13 items · means across 8 recordsBar length is the rank against every comparable record we hold, not the raw score: BC's questions all have a median around 4.5, so a raw-scale bar would be nearly full on every row and would tell you nothing. Every bar is one ink colour — nothing here is graded green or red. The hatched bars are not ratings at all: a higher number on either describes a different course, not a better one.

How to read this boardInstructors are ranked on their record in this class only, never on their average across everything they teach. Scores are out of 100 — Boston College's 1–5 agreement scale, ×20, the way these numbers were printed for years. Workload is BC's own five-band figure, not a number of hours, and is shown as a rank. A dash means the question was not reported, and is never a zero.
