Email from a professor I visited at the University of Oregon

Stephanie

I enjoyed your visit as well! It was good to see you again.

I hope things go well because I would sure enjoy the opportunity to
work with you this coming summer and the next
several years as you complete your studies!

Please keep in touch!

Best

Dave J.

It was really nice to get a letter like that from someone I think I may want to work with next year. It made my day :-)
