look you dont need to write fast to take decent notes
(RE: sciency subjets) you can buy a book with notes already in it,
and just write additional notes next to pre printed ones

dont go to all the trouble to record lecs on cassettes, just get a friends notes or something

gaz only certain subjects lectures are recorded onto cassettes and put into mycourse reserves

among them sociology, physiology, and history i believe

You don't have to write down everything a lecturer says.

Usually, you'll be able to download the lecture notes off webct before class, so you can just add points.
