Ok I'm wondering how to go about doing this.
There isn't a single mechanical engineering professor in the tech ME department that would even have a clue who I was if I emailed them asking for a letter of recommendation, and the grad school I'm applying to requires three of them. What do I do? Do they just hand these things out to anyone or do you actually have to prove to them you deserve it? I think I _MIGHT_ be able to get Dr. Oler to give me one, and MAYBE Dr. Muga .... I mean should I just email the instructors I know I got good grades from and be like "Hi! Recommend me!"......? -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

uh for grad school letters of recommendation are reaaaaaaaaaally important. but a generic letter from a professor that is known to write one for anyone will mean next to zero.
