Logically though, you'd have to presume there will be fewer of them even if they nominally continue to offer them. They'll certainly be paying them less. The internships seem a strange one to can given they frequently pay peanuts anyway. I would cynically expect the number of un/badly paid internships to increase while graduate schemes decline.
TT - lectures by Zoom sound well depressing. Wonder what the 'rules' on deferring? Presumably you couldn't have a whole cohort doing that or it would simply make admissions the next year a nightmare?
Regarding fees, my point was more that in a year or two I would hope universities will be functioning more normally which negates the impact of the fees. I am a 3k a year alumnus so easy for me to say, but I've always thought of student loans as a good example of bullshit economics; so few pay it back anyway that I always saw it as monopoly money. Very different from a institutional perspective I'm sure!
