@all am following the discussion and the real thing here is that everyone has a point, be it CSR or the intern gaining knowledge... but to those guys against the idea of a stipend I think It just doesn't sit well(whichever way you look at it). --->>Intern will need to get to your offices everyday --->>That same intern is expected to run around 8hours each day(probably won't afford lunch) --->>Intern will need to get home @ the end of the day, 99% chances you won't give him/her a lift. I know some of the guys in this list have had a share of what am talking about, it just is not fair and for God's sake it's the humane thing to do- give something for upkeep.

Suppose they do not get a chance at Internship, how woule they quantify these "troubles" and monetize them?

Seeing as the candidate is preffered to have skills, I also think it is fair to provide a stipend for their troubles. Even if it just covers the fare and possibly lunch. not necessarily a salary.

What a healthy debate I spawned. I intend to share your sentiments with my colleagues. The general tone of the discussion is that we need to be mindful of the current economic situation. However as noted, internship is an opportunity to gain knowledge and corporate environment skills that may be of benefit in your future endeavors.

This lukewarmness partly stems from fear of their adversaries . . . and partly from the skepticism of men, who do not truly believe in new things unless they have actually had personal experience of them.” * (From Chapter VI of Niccoló Machiavelli,The Prince.
