<p>I’m a bit conflicted over that one as from my perspective, LORs are things Profs do AS A VOLUNTARY FAVOR for a student…not as a mandated part of their teaching/mentoring duties. </p>
<p>Moreover, I can see situations where Profs can and IMO, should take back promises to provide LORs to students…such as finding the student has subsequently cheated/lied to said Prof or to a colleague or in some real cases I knew of in college, a few classmates who were oblivious enough to demand the Prof write the promised LORs because it’s an “emergency” and in the process, interrupt the Profs’ holiday dinners with their respective families. </p>
