Letters of Recommendation

    Writing letters of recommendation is one of the most important things that I do. I take this task seriously; people's livelihoods as well as the functioning of our profession rests upon thoughtful, well-written letters. I also do this a fair amount, writing about 40 letters every year for a variety of reasons, from tenure and promotion to job applications to fellowships to graduate school applications to funding for travel, and for many other reasons.


    I am very willing to write a letter for a deserving candidate (which you presumably are). However, I need your help for this process to work. Please try to keep the following in mind:

I can no longer write a new letter without several week's notice. I used to do this occasionally, but my good will has been taken advantage of too many times.
