Hi all,

I am seriously considering going back to school for my doctorate. I know the way your supposed to figure out where to go to get your degree (seek out top researchers doing cool stuff that matches your skills) but with two kids a wife and mortgage, I am looking for tips on the program that has short residency requirements or combines intensives with distance learning. Any thoughts would be helpful!
