In California, is it legal to tape parts of lectures for my use only, without prior consent? I have done this, e.g., when entering a class late and not wanting to interrupt to ask. I have not always remembered to go to them afterward to tell/ask them; honestly, I didn't think it was a big deal, and on some level maybe I was afraid they would tell me "no," or to delete it. Listening later can help me catch things I may miss in class just by listening once at the time. I used my iPhone, which is password-protected. I want to talk with the professor about something he said (which I heard on the recording playback), but now am concerned I didn't get prior consent./div>
