In grad school your institution should be paying for fees like that. If the school itself isn't paying, then doesn't the supervisor have a grant they can file it under?

Did we not read the same comment? The advisor did have funding for that sort of thing and just plain didn't offer. Maybe he wanted to have a big pizza party or something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
