Your story reminded me of when I was in college and about to graduate with my BA Degree in hand, with dreams of going to Law School.
I was nowhere near the smartest student in my class, but I had put together a string of semesters of good grades and even better relationships with my professors. Still, I felt pretty special when all of them that I approached willingly wrote glowing personal reference letters of recommendations recommending me for Law School admission.
The short of a long story is that I was accepted, and to this day believe it was on the strength of their character reference letters. It sure as heck wasn't based on just my grades and LSAT scores.
So, I too am keenly aware how influential good reference letters can be and still have a great of respect for the professors who helped make the experience possible.

:)The Connections We Make by: Anonymous
It's always refreshing when the connections we make with counselors, mentors, and teachers move them to go above and beyond in aiding in your academic endeavors. What will be even more refreshing, is when those same connections encourage those same correspondence for further recommendation.
