rejected gift from professor

inthedark — Sat, 26 Mar 2016 13:28:00 +0800

After my professor wrote my recommendation and sent it to me, I gave her a card and inside was a gift card. I received an e-mail today from her saying that she can't accept my gift and that she enjoyed working with me and that she is rewarded by my successes and future goals coming to pass. She said she would be in her office next week so that I could pick up the card.

How should I respond? I definitely am not going to go pick up the gift card. I would feel wierd taking back a gift. Should I just not reply to her e-mail? She's actually retiring this week and so that Is why I was proactive about getting her a card and gift right after she wrote the letter.

I hope this doesn't mean that the letter is negative and so she feels guilty accepting a gift from me.
