In Class Note Taker Announcement

Faculty may e-mail the following announcement or read it in class to locate a volunteer note taker. Whichever way you choose, the student's confidentiality must be maintained.

Peer note taker needed. The Disability Resource Center is recruiting a volunteer to take notes in this class. No extra time outside of class is required.

Qualifications for a volunteer peer note taker:

• Has legible handwriting and reasonably well-organized notes.
• Plans to attend class regularly.
• Is willing to have their notes copied, emailed, or is willing to use a special carbonless paper that makes two copies as you write.
• Volunteer needs to complete a sign up as a notetaker through our AIM Data Base by going to www.lamar.edu/drc and clicking on the red AIM DRC Login button.  If the volunteer has any questions they can stop the DRC Office located in COM 105 for assistance. 

Once you have identified a volunteer note taker, please put the student needing assistance in contact with the volunteer. The student registered with our office is responsible for working with the volunteer note-taker to get copies of the student’s notes.
