Is your museum running on interns? It is a strong, museum-focused complement to an excellent three-parter on Createquity about the ethics and future of unpaid arts internships. Free intern labor wasn''t ever right, but it has become glaringly unethical in the current post-Lehman-crash era.

Even when the comments are good, museum staff processes are rarely set up to learn from them and adapt programming accordingly. Probably not. Can you remove it?"
