Comment:

Prof. Hagenbuch is an amazing person and teacher. He always finds a way to make class interesting, whether it's with videos or old stories. He really tries to help students and is very personable. For the tests all you really need to know is vocab, which he gives you. The pop quizzes are very simple if you pay attention. I 100% recommend him.

Hagenbuch is a gem! Honors Advertising Ethics was amazing with a range of assignments from research paper to group debate to op ed article. The class challenges your thinking and shares a lot about philosophy and marketing. Hagenbuch is so sweet and funny. He kept the class entertaining for sure. Incredible prof! Really helpful!

Comment:

As a marketing professor, He does not have any business sense. He likes to talk about empty principles and concepts which I don't feel I am learning anything. He always pad student's shoulder to give fake encouragement but never actually "help" in practical advices. I was very disappointed with him both as advisor and professor.

Comment:

Went into his class thinking that it would be boring, but he completely changed my view of business/marketing. I had so much fun with my group members too. The entire class was a blast. He taught us very relevant real world issues that opened my eyes to things in the business world. His tests are rather easy if you read his key terms. Great prof!

Dr. Hagebuch is hands down the best prof Ive had so far. I had the worst 1st sem. anyone could ever have, & having him as my Jterm prof gave me so much happiness & hope. Hes a great teacher, genuinely cares for his students, is respectable, & is hilarious. Hes one of the reasons I switched to my major to Marketing, take him every chance you get!

Dr. Hagenbuch is a great professor. He really dedicates his entire heart into teaching and into the study of Marketing. He gives assigned seats but really its not that bad. The A&E presentation was a lot of fun to work on! Make sure you read through all of the assigned readings. There will be pop quizzes every week. Overall, its a great class!

Comment:

Dr Hagenbuch is probably the best prof I have taken at Messiah. He is making me consider switching to a marketing major. He cares, he's funny, brings humor into his classroom, and is a pretty easy grader. Attendance is mandatory but you want to go to class.

Comment:

Dr. Hagenbuch is a great professor. Most of the classes are lectures, but he tries to joke around and be hip which makes the class fun. As long as you read the textbook and do the "important terms to know" before each test, you should be fine in the class. On assignments besides quizzes and tests, he grades for completion and not correctness.

Comment:

Dr. Hagenbuch is a great prof who really cares about his students. His is an easy grader, but does give the occasional pop quiz. As long as you at least skim the chapter before class and do the assignments (for a completion grade) you will definitely do well.

Funny guy. He expects you to pre-read the chapters, sometimes even quiz the chapters assigned, and only further discuss them in class.

Hagenbuch is bomb. Very entertaining class. I expected to be bored because Marketing is kinda intuitive, but he made it a very enjoyable experience.

Great Professor! Probably one of my favorites! He is very clear in his expectations and teaching style. Know your vocabulary and application for the exams. Lives out his Christian beliefs in and outside the classroom! Will take more of his classes if I can!!!!

Hagenbuch is great. He has a funny sense of humor, although I can see it being an acquired taste to some. He is also very clear in the way he teaches and only talks about what is relevant to the class (and the test). Know the vocab and you will be fine.

Honestly did not learn much from taking his class. Very boring and monotonous. Takes too long to deliver and holds you until the very last second of each class, even sometimes over, which is ridiculous.

Were in college now and should no longer be treated like children. Takes mandatory attendance and if you are absent deducts alot of points from your final grade. Didn't like him at all!

He's a great prof! Loves marketing and loves to bring the Bible into it. He is a tough grader on presentations and his test are all multiple choice. He assigns seats which is weird but awesome at the same time to meet new people. Knows what he's talking about. Classes can be a bore but mostly aren't. Great Prof!
