Disability Resources for Students is looking for a responsible individual who is interested in helping out a fellow student with a disability. We need a volunteer who is available to scribe for a CSE final exam at our office in Schmitz Hall. Scribing is an accommodation provided to students who cannot write or cannot do so efficiently enough to complete an exam. It simply involves writing down the answers to an exam as the student gives them to you verbally. In certain cases, you may also be asked to read the questions aloud to the student.
The DRS office is requesting CSE majors for this because our specific need this quarter is for CSE 417. For any science exam, it is very helpful for the scribe to be familiar with the material being tested. They are more than happy to write a letter of recommendation for employment or graduate school applications for our volunteers. Please consider the personal rewards of volunteering and, if you’re interested, contact Drew Britten (contact info below).
Needed this quarter:
Final – Monday 3/17 12:30-4:30
