REQUEST FOR NOTE TAKERS

ATTENTION: COURSE INSTRUCTOR

Please assist this student in his or her efforts to obtain a note taker for your class. It is imperative that this student receive notes from the first day the class begins. Suggestions to assist you in making this request to the class are as follows:

Advise the class that:

- The need for a volunteer note taker exists. (Please do not use the student’s name or identify the student in any way.) It is totally up to the student’s legal right and discretion to self-identify as requiring a note taker.

- Volunteer note takers will receive a community service certification for the time involved in taking notes. This community service can be listed on a resume or job application as employers may be interested in outside activities of this type.

- Additional information regarding payment for services can be provided by the Office of Student Development.

Please notify Dr. Maggie Martin, Director of Student Development, immediately if you are unable to acquire a volunteer note taker for this student. Thank you for your assistance in facilitating classroom accessibility.
