Pleeeaaaaaseeeeeee take this class! Literally the best professor ever! He is so kind. I really really really enjoyed the class but that is if you are interested in anthropology. There are quizzes but he tells you ahead. You also need to make sure you pay attention and take notes because if you do not take notes, you won’t succeed on the quiz. There is also a project and final paper at the end but it’s group work. Prior to that there’s another project and food and the columbian exchange. I found it really fun. I also liked the class because I took it during summer and the windows were large and open so it was so peaceful. I really really really enjoyed this class!

I would say that this class is definitely geared toward those who are interested in anthropology, as Dr. Hambrecht is clearly very passionate about the content covered and lectures were on specific topics. That being said, I really enjoyed it! It was a project-based class with no tests or quizzes, which is my preferred class structure, and the 2 big projects we had to complete weren't too difficult. Dr. Hambrecht is a really chill professor who wants people to succeed in the class, which was also great. As others have mentioned, he also will bring his dog to class where he'll walk around and hang out. Great class overall!

I found his lectures engaging to listen to and he was an interesting person to talk to. The projects were interesting and not difficult. The only real complaints I have are that the reading quizzes we had were graded strictly and the ELMS pages was a bit unorganized. I'm an archaeology nerd, so I really enjoyed this class, but I know others who were in this class and weren't anthropology people found this class a not interesting. He also brings his dog to class which was a major plus.

I don't know what was up with him this past term but he barely taught me anything. There was a point in the semester when I forgot I was even taking this class. It consisted of five 10-minute reading quizzes and then just 2 projects towards the end. Communication was bad since he barely emailed back and would skip over things in the syllabus. Half the time he never uploaded any lectures. He never even made any real contact with the class until we were 2 weeks into the semester. Throughout the semester it was super easy with barely any work and then at the end there are two big projects that determine your grade.

He loves this subject which is reflected in his course work, he is so understanding and will be willing to work with you! also sometimes he brings his dog to class which is a bonus but I highly recommend taking him! I loved this class
