Ross

I believe the answer is:

intern

(Other definitions for intern that I've seen before include "Incarcerate without trial - a junior hospital doctor?" , "Put in prison" , "Often unpaid trainee" , "Confine - physician in US hospital" , "Imprison (eg, alien) as a precautionary measure" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
