Graduation is an event that needs to be commemorated no matter what the occasion. Whether it is high school, college, evening class, beauty school or bar tending academy - it is a rite of passage that honors those that have put in a lot of work and are now ready to use that knowledge in the real world.
With this in mind I think the most ideal gifts are those that mark the occasion. Yes, they may like a big check, a car or a European trip but even if you give them something like that you should also give them something that shows you are proud of them.
Something for their dorm/apartment is always appreciated. It could range from a TV to a vacuum cleaner to a cookbook. An indoor basketball game or arcade game could make them popular on their dorm, as would an LCD TV.
Luggage is a popular gift. They will (hopefully) be coming back often and it can be used for many years to come (particularly on that European trip).
There are many other choices - iPods, stereos, computers etc. The main thing is that it is thoughtful and means something - to both the giver and the receiver.
Tony Connor has agonized over what to get people for their birthdays, Christmas etc. for many, many years. In order to build upon this foundation of angst he set up www.BrightGiftIdeas.com, a resource for people who need inspiration when it comes to gift giving. He is ably supported by his wife who, if shopping was a sport, would be a member of the US Olympic team with an outside chance of a gold medal.
