Wow. I finally have power. yay. ok. Let’s see, if I wrote every professor a different email, I would have about 70 pages of stufff so no. I guess you could write separate email for like say biology professors and another one for chemistry professors but I wouldnt suggest writing a different email to all the professors because if you were thinking about matching your interests with their research projects, the websites that usually post their research projects arent updated regularly (from experience with my professors). I didnt email any professors at the community colleges here because I know they definitely dont have decent research labs so I just emailed private universties. I mean there are 4 of those that are quite small around my area so I emailed them. I also emailed the University of Miami and did get some replies so if doesnt hurt to email professors at UofC and Northwestern but I didnt go to UMiami because its a 2-hour drive roundtrip and thats too much travel time I dont have. Also, I also went email crazy because I know how low the response rate for professors are so I wanted to have sorta a selection to choose from based on how far these people are and which project interested me the most.
