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 :( (27 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
