Graduate Students:
The Writing Studio presents a brownbag workshop on
Writing Letters of Recommendation
Wednesday, October 7
Because graduate students at Vanderbilt often lead discussion sections or teach small classes, undergraduates early in their careers often ask them to write letters of support for RA positions, internships, and study abroad programs. With this in mind, and realizing that graduate students will continue writing recommendations as they progress in their careers, the Writing Studio offers a workshop featuring faculty and graduate student panelists discussing the challenges of writing letters of recommendation, including writing for one’s best student, writing for a student about whom one feels ambivalent, writing for a shy student, etc. Please bring your lunch and your questions about writing recommendations.
Panelists: Derek Bruff, Carolyn Cusick, Josh Epstein, and Roger Moore
Wednesday, October 7th
12:10-1:10
306 Buttrick Hall
