"Michael Siepmann was one of the best doctoral students I ever advised. He did everything well and was recognized with a prestigious Javits Fellowship, only a few of which are given out. He is especially good with computers and statistics and is one of only two students who have ever got ahead of me in knowledge of essential tools that I use. We co-authored a chapter on how to use JavaScript for questionnaire studies on the World Wide Web—at a time when we were almost the only ones doing this. Michael is also thoughtful, well organized, and dependable."
