I got an A- in this class and it didn't kill me to get that grade. Dr. Hammer is a great professor who was clear and helpful. I also liked the class discussions and meeting with her in private meetings was cool. She makes the class interesting and fun.

Wonderful professor. Though the class was 2 hrs, she has a lot to say and gives you breaks and it doesn't feel that long. We had 3 papers and you peer review but she's always available to discuss. You have a 15 min conference with her after your 2nd paper. She really cares about her students & their work! Class helped me get comfortable w/research.

BEST professor at UCSB. She was very clear and helpful, her essays were a bit tough at times but i was able to get help with the CLAS tutor we got for her class. She actually takes the time to know her students, definitely recommend her to everyone!
