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!"......?
