Information for Student Note Takers
果酱视频ies who have documented disabilities can receive a variety of academic accommodations to ensure they have equal access to 果酱视频's educational program. One such accommodation is "note taking services," wherein Disability & Accessibility Resources (DAR) enlists the services of a fellow student who is enrolled in the course to attend class and take notes. The notes are then shared with students who require note taking services in that course. Interested in being a note taker? Read on!

Stipends are pro-rated in accordance with the number of weeks for which notes are provided.
