Good prof.. really cares about her students.. rarely used one of the textbooks.. but an easy marker compared to other profs who teach the course. have to go to lecture - she takes attendance

Comment:

Prof Langan was an amazing prof. She is very compassionate & caring towards students. Sometimes her classes felt too easy. We had to sit in groups the entire year. We did not use one text book. Sometimes over taught and made us feel like fifth graders, however, personally i'd rather be overtaught than undertaught. Overall great!

Comment:

i hated this class. she put us in groups the whole year, and we all know how productive group work is. we only used ONE chapter out of one of the books we had ot buy! she made us buy an entire book for one chapter! she didnt teach ANYTHING relevant to the course..actually..she didn't even teach. absolutely USELESS and ridiculous.

Comment:

This was my second time having Prof. Langan. I dont know what happend to her, this year she was lost and confused wich made the students feel the same way. Her assignments were soooo confusing, with unclear expectaions and not relevant to the course. unfortunatley her time is up at York, better luck elsewhere.

Comment:

Had her last year, and must say she made the course very easy and more than fair. Her take home exams were not difficult and neither were her quizzes. However she is quite a boring lecturer, but still attend because several questions that are on quiz come from lecture

Comment:

Oh Gawd! I like sociology, but this woman cannot pull off an entire sentence without at least one 3 minute break in between... Bores me to taers and cannot concentrate in her lectures. She drags very simple thoughts on and on and on and ... (5 min break)... on and on and on.... (you get my point). Tests based mostly on lectures, so make sure you attend and take notes.

Prof Langan is amazing! She really cares about her student's success. Her MC test are pricky tricky but hey, this is University. Langan is an inspiration and I'm so glad I took this first year course with her. I couldn't ask for a better prof. She includes the whole group as part of her lectures which makes for a interactive lecture and alot of fun

AMAZING!! One of the best Professors at York! Very nice and approachable. The course itself is interesting and easy. Essays are interesting. MC tests can be tricky but just take down good notes and listen to her examples. TA's are great esp. Andrea!!! take this course with Proff Langan and no one else!!!

An amazing prof - highly recommended. Truely cares for her students and wants them to succeed. Easy lectures, take-home exams, but tricky MC tests. Tip: lots of her test questions come from her lectures/lecture notes so try and pay attention. Overall, a nice, easy class and very sweet, understanding prof. Will certainly take another class with her!

She is very helpful. Attending her lectures may be boring, but she tries to make them as fun as possible. She is always willing to help, and go over any question. BUT BEWARE MUL, CHOICE TESTS!

I like this teacher. She has a very nice attitude, helpful, she is fair and she knows her stuff very well. She wants all her students to do well in her class. She also values your opinion and is always interested in what you have to say. She makes sociology interesting too. I wouldn't mind having her as a teacher every year. She is really good.

Comment:

Professor Langan was an awesome prof.Tests were easy as long as you answer the questions she gives you in the Study Guide.The take home exams were fairly easy too providing you know how to write an essay,and clarify what is required of you with your TA(Tomoko is the best!).Go to lectures because she asks questions about videos and lecture content.
