Hello All:

The link below is to further the discussion, which evidently has not 
been passed along to the membership, about unpaid internships at CCI.

If anyone thinks that it is fair that some, i.e. students, should work 
for free, then perhaps the education system should be free, too.  Or, 
how about having those running programs with unpaid internships spend 
the same amount of time volunteering their services for free.
