Your student group is setting up an internship fair. You invite companies looking for interns and students looking for internships and offer them a place to connect. The UofT wants to encourage this event and offers a per-internship of $5000. Whom do you recommend they give the $5000 to?--the student who gets the internship, the company that hires the student or split the money between them equally? What would be the effect of a $5000 subsidy on the number of internships? Why?
