Very funny, but in a corny way. I loved the class and him as a professor. Do NOT fall behind on the readings and you'll be fine. Easy A if you keep up with your work. He is a great person and professor.

Comment:

GREAT professor! Keeps class interesting (most of the time), but you really don't need to go to class except to take the quizzes. Quizzes are relatively easy, but it's extremely easy to fall behind on reading. Other than that, great course and professor!

Comment:

If you do the readings, this is not a difficult class. If you don't, then it kinda sucks. But there are no test or papers. Simply a T/F quiz every Friday over the readings of the week.

Great Teacher whith great book-lists. If you read, you can't do poorly. He's bad at anything to do with computers, but he makes up for it.

if you read you'll get an A. True/false tests are straightforward and the paper is not the hard either. READ! you'll screw yourself over if you don't.

Comment:

An extremely nice professor, always willing to talk/listen and help, and great books for class (though the theory is a little dry). Just weekly quizzes on the reading, a paper and a test. Not a class to stress about, and Lang is really great.
