Letters of recommendation are critical elements of applying for opportunities in academia and in the art world. This ACAH webinar will provide a forum for participants to hear from the expertise of three faculty panelists and to ask questions and discuss best practices regarding asking for, writing, and evaluating letters of recommendation in graduate school and beyond.
In the first half of the program, the panelists will engage in a roundtable discussion regarding approaches to asking for, writing, and evaluating letters of recommendation across institutional cultures and in an international context. This will be followed by Q & A with the audience in the second half of the program. We warmly invite the participation of scholars at all career stages to discuss this important aspect of professionalization and mentoring in our field.

The Visual and Material Perspectives on East Asia Workshop (VMPEA) is oriented toward the study of visual and material objects, built environments, and the relationship between text and image from East Asia. It explores a plethora of visual and textual materials across a variety of historical periods and geographic locations in order to understand socio-political, cultural, and historical aspects of China, Japan, and Korea. While being based in art history, the Workshop is committed to interdisciplinary inquiries and perspectives, including but not limited to archaeology, anthropology, architecture, literature, religious studies, cinema and media studies, and museum studies.
