While reading Student sues college over notetaking, I recalled my own experiences with notetakers in college. I had one excellent one in my freshman year and a lousy one. Go figure, the lousy one was in the economics class, where I needed extra help as I stuggled with classes like that. He was an economics major, but that doesn’t mean he knew how to take notes so I could understand what was going on.
Gee, should I sue the schools (I went to two colleges) for giving me poor notetakers that caused me to have lower grades or to drop a class due to lack of information? Somehow, I made it through college with a decent GPA. It’s a shame that it was before online classes were readily available. It would’ve made life easier for me as a student.
