Dear Professor Gillen,

I hope you are having a great semester! My name is Meghan Hurst. I am a freshman
here at Penn State Abington. I have a deep love for weight lifting and feel as an athlete
that I have benefitted from lifting. This being said, I have been wanting to conduct a
research project pertaining to female athletes. I noticed you have a deep connection
with studying exercise and the appearance of the body. As I was thinking which
professor would be the best choice to guide me on this ACURA project, I discovered
you have an ongoing ACURA project, studying the energy expenditure in female
athletes and non-athletes. I believe that you are the perfect professor to help me with
this Acura project because of your background in human development. Not to mention
you already have experience with studying female athletes.

I was hoping you could help me perform an ACURA project studying the benefits of
weight lifting for female athletes by studying the difference in the following testing
areas: muscular endurance and injuries in lifting females vs. non-lifting females. This
Acura project would take place in the fall semester of 2020. I would work on it on a
weekly basis.

The latest I would like to know if you will help me with this Acura project is January 10,
2020. I understand if you are unable to help me with this ACURA project as I know your
time is very valuable and limited. It would be easiest if you could send me a response
through my Penn State email.

Thank you for taking the time to read my email. I hope to read your email soon!
Meghan Hurst
