I reckon it should be DSAable. Would the note-taker be prepared to transcribe the lecture from the recording and claim their hours as usual?

There is a recording of the lectures available which the student would like transcribed. Would you expect the student's department to pay for this service? I'm assuming it wouldn't come from her DSA?
