graduation gifts???

well it's that time of year again, graduation. i have a couple of friends that are graduating from college. both my parents and i were wondering if you give graduation gifts for people that are graduating from college. i know you do for high school and stuff. but seeing how this is a little new to all of my family i was wondering if you do give gifts and what is appropriate?? any insight would be greatly appreciated

briefcase?suit?job interviews?financial books?.....just find something specific for what they're planning when they get out of college

Money is what your suppose to give.
Thats what i wnat

a massive grad party. with strippers.

get a nice watch if he doesn't have one

Hmm...

...I want a Carribbean island. And tons of money.

yeah money! Considering the fact that I have not beenn able to spend any money for the past to months and this is my first time on the internet in 2 months. I have lots of things to do. Bootcamp :thumbsup:

At my collegiate grad party, a lot of people went with "useful" items such as money, teacher-things (since I am a teacher), or other worldly things like grown-up watches/jewelry/gift cards that I could use in my own way. Hope that helps.

a stereo system would be nice. my bro got a shelf stereo system for his, i got a stereo system for my car

Well I graduated high school adn got zero $, and a nice leather jacket from Italy...that didn't have long enough sleeves :biggrin:

After college I managed $75, a free trip to Boston (on my cousin), and one of those long HEAVY jackets you wear over a suit.

Moral of the story: If you're getting them a jacket, make sure they want one and it fits. Money is always good, appreciated, and safe. And trips to Boston with free booze, parties, and otehr extra-curriculars is a FREAKING awesome present!

But yeah, I say go with money.
