Basic Tips
For the child of a family friend or co-worker, commemorate their special occasion with a more traditional graduation gift like an engraved money clip, cuff links, or classic pearl stud earrings.
Gift grads you know well with more personal mementoes or experiences that celebrate their interests and accomplishments. Has your grad just finished a thesis on Tennessee Williams? Opt for tickets to "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." A modern art buff? A membership to MoMA might be the perfect choice.
If your budget doesn't fit accomodate an iPhone for your techie gradthey will still love the Waterproof iPod Speaker System, because suffering through cold and music-less showers is really so juvenile isn't it?

Do-Gooder Grad: ATM (Under $40)
It didn't take dining hall chili to turn this grad into a vegan. And even if she mocks luxe ethical fashion, she'd trade her crocs for Natalie Portman's Té Casan faux patent Mary Janes in a heart beat. Some gift tips for your do-gooder:
ATM (Under $40)Ask your grad what charities they care most about and make a donation. For $30, a gift of honey bees from Heifer International will help struggling families from Uganda to El Salvador earn income through the sale of honey, beeswax and pollen -- all in honor of your grad.
If you are torn between wanting to give your socially conscious grad a tangible gift and supporting their causes, don't give up hope just yet! Jewelers like Lori Leavitt and Joan Hornig are dedicating 100% of their profits to charity. Lori focuses on the H.E.L.P Malawi foundation, which works to educate and protect the children of Malawi, Africa. The unique lion's head which adorns her cuff links, key chains and jewelry was chosen by the children as their symbol, and it shows your support as they battle poverty and HIV/ AIDS.
Joan's line, "Philanthropy Is Beautiful," allows customers to choose which charity the proceeds are donated to and includes a versatile range of necklaces.
