<p>Yeah, I see all sides of it but…the college didn’t really arrange the internship. She had to take a class this semester to prepare for applying, resume writing, interview skills etc. She does get the credits she needs for it but, unlike a student teaching experience, there is no supervisor, college affiliated mentor in place. I student taught and i had contact with my supervisor at my college, who checked my lesson plans, observed me, evaluated me, etc.</p>
<p>Her internship is at a non-profit so no pay.</p>
<p>I guess my issue is that paying for credits usually means that you are paying a teacher’s salary, use of facilities, etc. The college is making out on the deal if I’m paying the same amount for credits earned while she is at an office all day, under the supervision of that organization’s staff.</p>
