Note Taking Assistance

While lecture notes are an important part of the classroom experience, the process of taking notes is not accessible to all students. When this is the case, DRC may facilitate note taking assistance via a student volunteer system. Once a student identifies courses where this service is necessary and communicates with the instructors, instructors will make an announcement that a volunteer is needed to share a copy of her/his notes. Volunteers who respond to instructors’ announcements are directed to DRC. DRC will make a copy of the notes and keep them in a file for the student. Students utilizing this service remain anonymous unless they wish to self identify to the volunteer note taker. DRC employs a graduate assistant who works with faculty and the student to coordinate note taking assistance.
