OP just pop in your favorite backstreet boys mixtape, and let it tell you what you should do .

if he isn't passionate about what he's doing, spending the money and time to go to grad school isn't going to be worth it.

Ask him what else he wants to do than grad school.

It can only come from him, I'm sorry.

Wish you two the best though, and do you live together I'm assuming? (i hope you're not going out of your way to wake him up every day LOL)

I am a comp sci student interested in grad school (dunno what field he is in) and the same things apply, the passion comes within. The other undergraduates working in research labs both during hte year and in the summer are in two distinct categories: those with passion and those who fail (and/or get little out of it). There really is no in-between when it comes to academia, 'robotically doing the research' only applies to a few fields (yes im bashing bio/biochem research, i used to be in that field before lol).


This is pretty much dead on. If there is no motivation good luck in finding it..
