Howie,

Has this worked?  Have you been funded from a federal agency that issued a
research agreement with approval for stipend, tuition and fees?

In particular, have you used this approach with NASA? I would appreciate
knowing what federal agencies that you have successfully used this technique
with.

Thanks,
