Those of you who are saying this should consider the fact that an Intern gets access to resources which otherwise they'd not get while sitting at home, or being in the college.

If someone offers to take an Intern, it should be the responsibility of the person responsible for footing the cost of training the individual to also cater for their expenses during Internhsip. Internship is not a job! It's an opportunity to get hand-on experience - and this is at the expense of the company providing that opportunity.

I think you guys have got it all wrong!

Giving a stipend is not a right. It's a privilege that can be extended to the Intern, but not guaranteed.

Mwenye hataki aache!!

“And one should bear in mind that there is nothing more difficult to execute, more dubious of success, nor more dangerous to administer than to introduce a new order of things; for he who
introduces it has all those who profit from the old order as his enemies,and he has only lukewarm allies in all those who might profit from the new. 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. Peter Bondanella and Mark Musa,translators. Oxford University Press revised edition,
1984, p. 21.)
