[quote=Anonymous]It seems rude to me. I can understand a teacher feeling overwhelmed with requests for recommendations, and some get asked for a lot more than others. But this still seems very inconsiderate. Also, if it's relevant to your opinion: the student in question is extremely involved has received straight As in the teachers classes (has taken multiple with the teacher) and is very involved in an extra-curricular activity the teacher runs (has participated all four years and served in a leadership position with the group starting in junior year. So it is not a question of the teacher having too little interaction with the student or not having good things to say about them -- even if there is a personality mismatch, the teacher could simply explain why the student has done well in class and point to their participation/leadership in the activity and it would be a positive recommendation pretty much by default.[/quote]
