Hey all! So obviously we wouldn't get anywhere in the application process if our advisors and vets we worked for didn't write letters of recommendations for us. Can you guys think of any appropriate gifts to say thank you (especially for males)?

Just as another idea, I wrote my letters before I got into any schools just so they knew I was thankful whether I got in or not... just something to think about in case you need them again next year!
Exactly what i did Emiloo. All my letter writers got letters this summer, some who have been especially helpful/active got a second letter over Christmas.
So I'm definitely going to be writing a nice letter to all of the clinics that I shadowed at. I spent time with all the vets at each place, so I want to write a letter addressing everyone.
My question is regarding addressing techs. I definitely need to; they began teaching me the technical (haha, get it?) skills and thought processes for clinic work. I'm worried that I don't remember all of their names, or that someone has left the clinic since I've been there. How should I go about getting everyones names? Would calling and asking what techs are there be inconsiderate?
Call anonymously and ask. Or just send one big thank you addressed to all the technicians at the clinic????
If I was a super-spy ninja and could get them to tell a stranger their staffing list, I totally would. I just don't think they'll give out that info willy-nilly.
And I thought about the "everyone" address, but I know how off-putting that feels. Whenever we get notes at the clinic I work at that say "To Dr. So-and-So and staff," I feel really unappreciated and left out.
Bah. I should just make a visit to everyone.
Vet I want to get a gift for is a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. Should I go for something vet-themed or Bruce Springsteen themed?
