Requesting a letter of recommendation is easy, right? It might be trickier than you imagine! Do you know how far in advance to ask for a letter? Do you even know the best person to ask? There are many situations in which you might be unsure how to proceed.
This workshop will include:
-
An exchange of ideas between participants from different academic backgrounds who have faced challenges when requesting a letter
-
Discussion of potential solutions to common dilemmas
-
Participants will create reverse timelines to begin the process of requesting future letters.
-
The workshop, based upon the Letters of Recommendation Resources guide, is for all graduate students- whether you have just begun graduate school or are soon joining the working world.
Facilitated by Dr. Melanie Sorrell, Atkins Library Subject Librarian
Coffee and snacks are served!
