| The waiver is a matter of the student giving up a right (set up by federal law) to access the recommendation letter from college files after admission, but the student signing the waiver has NO effect on a teacher's right to show the letter to someone else--for example the student. A teacher could readily write up a good recommendation after the student signs the waiver, mail off the recommendation, and then show the recommendation to the student. Word processing files are great like that: the teacher can show the student a copy of what was sent. |
