• Communicate with the Interpreter or CART provider about how you prefer to communicate with the instructor and other students in class.
• Remember the equipment the CART provider uses is their personal equipment. Do not handle equipment unless the CART provider asks you to help.
• Copy diagrams from the board or PowerPoints. The CART provider cannot get this kind of information into the notes; it is your responsibility.
• Check the spelling of all new vocabulary words. The correct spelling is your responsibility.
• If you don't understand something in class, ask the professor to clarify it, not the Interpreter or CART provider. They are not tutors or teaching assistants.
• Talk to your Accessibility Consultant about any problems with communication access in class or with notes. Do not let problems continue.
• CART providers will edit the lecture transcripts and the transcript will be emailed to you normally within two business days.

5. In order for the note-taker to receive their $25 per credit hour stipend (or certificate of volunteering), the note-taker must follow note-taker instructions.
6. Inform your assigned Accessibility Consultant if you (1) can’t find a note-taker, (2) the note-taker is not fulfilling their duties or (3) you no longer need the assistance.
