Comment:
No sentimentality from James Largay upon retirement. Instead, he spent the last moments of his teaching career going over useless homework problems: I had to applaud. Still, Lehigh is definitely losing one of their core with Largay gone. Unfortunately, the Wei Yu's and Sami's are the future of the dept. Lehigh's days as an acct school are ending.

Comment:
He takes attendance everyday. Homeworks are long and difficult (avg. 3 hrs.)Class is boring and he calls on you to answer questions so be prepared. He doesn't teach well at all...you have to teach yourself. I do not recommend taking him for your first acct class if you can't teach yourself.

Comment:
Class is really boring. He doesn't teach you much. If you aren't good at teaching yourself, you're screwed. Homeworks take a while to do. No review packets, practice tests, or anything. He's a good guy though and notices your efforts, just be prepared to work hard

Comment:
this class is horrible, the text he wrote so he doesn't teach just goes over problems in class, he basically reads from the overheads. He is not very good at explaining what are relatively difficult concepts. The last exam was ridiculous and on way more material than it is possible to learn.

Comment:
Not an easy professor, or an easy class. More difficult, in my opinion, than Cost Accounting. Expects you to really do your work and to remember things from Acct 315 and 316. You learn a lot in his class.

Designed acct 151 curriculum backwards and makes his class harder then he needs to. the entire department should be held accountable for their inability to moderate this unfair professor.

Great Guy. Challenges students to understand far beyond the basics. Has a great interest in seeing students do well. A very laid back course if you do the homework and pay attention. If you sit back, he will nail you. He's know who knows their ****.
