Subject: REU

We have a summer REU.  Our PI and business office are having a "discussion"
about whether we can provide students with a stipend for their
participation in the REU or whether they must be paid as employees with
FICA and taxes withheld.  Can any one help us?  I believe that we can
provide stipends with information to students regarding tax implications.

Thanks.

Carol
