    When I was at uni I had BSL Interpreter. Didn't have notetaker because lecture presentation slides got all info so I just download slides after lecture. Even I did want notetaker my DSA budget wouldn't allow it.

    Difference between deaf people living in US and UK.

    We don't have VRS in UK because it cost too much to set it up because UK is tiny compare to US so means less deaf people there. And because government keeps on about TextRelay is there for deaf. If there was VRS in UK, deaf will use it cos they wanted it for long time.
