I need ya'lls opinion here.

One of the undergrads in the chapter I advise has applied to law school and has asked me for a letter of reference/rec. When he gave me the LSAC form, I told him the same thing all my college professors told me everytime I asked for a letter of rec or reference, which was "you write it and email it to me and I'll make whatever changes and send it on." I told him this and its been over a month now and he hasnt sent me anything. I could very easily ask him or remind him that he needs to send me what he wants me to say, but I dont feel its my responsibility to chase him down. Its his letter of rec, not mine.

Am I in the wrong here? Should I remind him? Should he learn this lesson on his own?

Should we really have lawyers out there that aren't responsible enough to follow up on letters of recommendation for their admittance to law school???

When I got my letters, they received sample letters and resumé's. My school takes the letters of rec pretty seriously though.
