My H and I married during my Jr year. He was in grad school and had a 1/4 time teaching assistantship, which barely paid for rent and groceries. My parents paid my last 2 semesters tuition (under $300 in state back in those days) because they wanted me to finish instead of quitting to get a job (good thing, I had no marketable skills!).
Maybe Mombot is on to something. In grad school we were friends with 4 other couples - all of whom married as undergrads and all of whom are still married 30+ years later.
