A Big Month for Lang Students at Case Competitions
Facing stiff competition from other business schools across Canada, the Lang delegations held their own and took 7 top three finishes at ACE, 4 top three finishes at JDCC and 4 first-place finishes at the DeGroote summit. Preparing for case competitions like ACE, JDCC and the DeGroote summit require months of hard work, research, preparation and dedication. Congratulations to all Lang delegates.
