Not sure they know, not really important until you get some prospects to talk to. As for how, we also work from our houses and have used interns in a number of different situations, for some of the more formal intern arrangement (like the MBA practicum) you have the availability of UMass facilities to meet. Plus there are plenty of on-campus meeting places available. For the more working meetings, and less formal interns, we have had no problem meeting at our houses, where there is a proper meeting space and after the initial discussions.
