CHAPTER 7: Child Support Questions and Problem 4531 1. Suppose the college freshman in Nelson v. Robinson was admitted to Auburn University as well as the local community college. Not to take anything away from community college, but Auburn is a fine four year university. Not surprisingly, the student chooses Auburn. Problem is, Auburn is expensive. On July 11, 2012, the Auburn website listed in-state tuition as $9,446. Room and board, $10,606. Books and supplies, add $1,100. Mom drives a school bus, dad works construction. Are the parents obligated to send their daughter to Auburn over the more affordable community college? Can/should a family court judge order either or both parents to pony up the cost of an Auburn education? 2. Following college, can divorced parents be ordered to pay for law school, medical school, or another graduate program
