Procedures for Faculty

The qualified student with a disability must present you two pieces of information to receive note-taking services.

  1. Accommodation Card from Disability Resource Services. (Review and give back to the student.)
  2. Note-taking request form (Check appropriate option regarding notes.)

Note: A student must provide you with both documents to utilize note-taking services in your class. If a student does not, please refer them to Disability Resource Services, Truax 159 or DTEC 109.

  1. Once the student presents you with the aforementioned documents, please discuss how to best make the note-taking accommodation with the student. Faculty has two options regarding note-taking:
    • Provide a student with a copy of your own lecture notes. If you select this option, please return this form promptly to DRS.
    • Solicit a student note-taker from the class.
  2. If you are not going to provide your notes, make an in-class announcement regarding the need for a student note-taker to the class. A student is reimbursed $50 a credit for his/her notes. Note: If the student takes notes for more than 1 student in the class, he/she will be reimbursed $25 a credit for these additional students. Please keep the student's name confidential when making the announcement.
  3. If no one volunteers in the first class period, please make the in-class announcement at the beginning of the second class.
  4. Give the student note-taker the note-taking request form and send them to Disability Resource Services (Truax 159; DTEC 109).
  5. Notify Disability Services (246-6716) of any difficulties in locating a note-taking volunteer or with any other concerns.
