Sounds interesting.  Gotta pay 'em more than minimum wage, though,

Recruited from the ranks of soon to be AFOLs?

Strikes me that was the point, not to hire people who need market wages
to work there, but to hire people who love the brick already.... and
just happen to be still in high school and therefore can AFFORD to take
below market because the money is just pocket money.

I'd suggest paying nothing but that's not legal.

How about work study / internship? I don't know if they are required to
get paid or not.

Internships I know don't require you to pay the student because it is part of
their learning although many do pay students for internships.  I think it
really comes down to the profession.  I know that IS/IT/MIS (whatever acronym
you want) students are usually paid but many marketing students are not.  I
think it all gets to the availability of full time jobs in the profession and
the competition among companies for good help.

I don't know about work study but I would guess work study students are
supposed to be paid.

(...) Work Study is paid as well as Co-Op, I'm not sure about internships though I would believe they are also, And that there is some type of gov't control on what is paid :( (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
