[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am horrified by this and would never allow it as a parent. But you are a business professor: they want something from you. On the other hand, sometimes professors in severely undersubscribed areas are really the ones who should be wanting something from the student. After all, some humanities departments are dying on the vine. For that reason, I did allow/encourage DC to write two very brief emails: one to a professor in a niche humanities major at a top 10 SLAC, and one to a professor in the same field at a very large but prestigious oos state flagship. To my great surprise, the large school professor answered; he was lovely and informative. The SLAC professor did not. Guess where kid did not apply?
