One of the worst professors I've had in the Business School. She was unprofessional and seemed cynical. She does not make the exam for 364, so did not know what to tell the class what to study for. She ended up telling us to review the powerpoints primarily, meanwhile nearly the entire exam was from the textbook -- which she never mentioned once in class. |

I'm not sure why Professor Langa gets a bad wrap. In my opinion, she is a very energetic professor, does a good job of keeping students involved, and actually has a sense of humor unlike many other professors. I took the 7pm section for 364, so some days I was pretty burned out. However, Langa's personality did help me make it through those classes. I think a lot of professors who teach 364 get a bad wrap because many students see the material as common knowledge and think they can coast through the course. However, you do need to stay current on the reading to do well. Taking very detailed notes is not required but you do need to follow along in class because some of the material covered is not in the book. The exams are somewhat difficult (about 60% multiple choice and 40% fill in the blank/short essay.) There is a good amount of material to remember and you don't get a cheat sheet. So give yourself ample time to study. There are quite a few assignments outside of the class but they are pretty easy (just make sure to know the due dates and submit on time.) The group project is very extensive and requires a good amount of work and effort. Not the biggest fan of this because the groups are randomly assigned and you can get stuck with someone who won't pull their weight. |

What a dumb professor. She hasn't had any corporate or worthwhile experience and she's trying to teach me about business? Add into how she talks about her nonexistent dating life and you have the makings of a terrible class. Seriously though Langa, you need to be more professional. |

Despite what other comments say here, I actually enjoyed this class. I didn't find the material to be all that hard- you do have to study to do well on the tests though. You have to be able to take it seriously. I didn't find her biased, since there was like one kid who talked and the rest of us chilled for the majority of class. My only problems with the class was the group that I was in for our group project, but that's not her fault. I wished that she would have giving us a little more direction with our group assignments, but I feel this was probably part of the learning process. If you have Langa next semester, don't worry about it too much. You will be fine!! Plus, those extra out of class assignments meant that we got days off from class. |

I hated this class so much. The amount of material on the exams was ridiculous, making the averages much lower than a Smith CORE should be. The group projects were stupid and we had no idea how to do them due to her complete lack of instruction. This class was so frusturating the entire semester. I think half of my hatred came from the actual class material itself, and the other half from how annoying/incompetent Langa is. All she did was talk about herself and her problems, and unnecessecarily show us videos that wasted class time. We had a lot of out of class assignments like: guest speaker, group project, a research sona study, and ropes course (yes, the ropes course behind Eppley. Who knew a mgmt class would force me to be physically fit/active?). Overall a poorly designed class that I'm glad is over. |

She isn't very clear on guidelines for the final group paper. In our class the week before the final paper was due she began to add more things she wanted included in the paper, this is completely unorganized on her part. I do agree she does come off biased and if she likes you she isn't shy about giving you extra points. |

if you love to participate, take this class. grade is heavily based on in-class participation - attendance AND giving intelligent comments in class. LOTS of reading. one case write up, 2 group projects. exams are not impossible but you do have to study extensively (all multiple choice) this isnt an easy class - you have to work to get the grade you want. she's a great person, very helpful as a professor, and really wants everyone to do well. she loves to travel and shares lots of stories. |

Whenever we have problems with capsim, she always says call capsim, she never try to help us. The only time she gave us advice it was wrong. We asked her if we could produce new product for our company in the very early round, she told us it was too late. Our company would be so much profitable if we didn't listen to her. She also graded us unfair. We got a lower score in the later rounds when we were doing so much better. |

She is the worst professor I have ever had in my life. Don't take her class. She is so biased. Everything in this class is group work. If you are in a group with all the smart students, she always give you good grade no matter what you do, even if you don't do anything. Capsim is a online game require a lot of work. And the grade she give is totally unfair. Participation, current even notebook, everything in her class is not fair. And she doesn't treat students with respect. |
