> A lot of reviewing for conferences is actually being done by Ph.D. students. They have to do it, whether they are on a stipend or not.

Most (all?) PhD students in science and engineering are on fellowships, at least in the US. Major research universities will not admit unfunded PhD students.

Oh boy, would I love that to be the case as an unfunded PhD student, working a separate job as visiting faculty.
