Maybe it's a rant because he's paying tuition.

Depends on the subject and the grad school. Hopefully, the school is covering tuition and providing a small stipend in exchange for grading or teaching.

By the way, congratulations to both of you, sparks.

I never became a parent mostly because I didn't want a kid that would be smarter than me.

Also because I never get any.

Tuition is never cheap. She says she is going to take care of the tuition herself. I am sure that will be through a loaning institute with a very low interest rate (me) & flexible payments.


She will be going to Marquette. Hopefully they will have some form of assistance she can take advantage of.

As her dad I think that it would be inappropriate to answer this question.
