Gift ideas plentiful for UNL May graduates
Cheap presents available

Graduation means diplomas, robes,
parties and, of course, loot, loot,
loot.
The family members and friends
of this year’s graduating class are running
out of time to buy perfect gifts for their
graduates.
Selecting gifts can be difficult because in
many cases, graduates don’t seem to need
much — besides a job, of course.
Most college graduates don’t need school
supplies, the mainstay of high school gradu
ation gift-giving.
Few relatives and friends are willing or
able to fork over the kind of money needed
to buy things a college graduate really could
use.
And shoppers who fit the category of
“Well, he loaned me his car once, and 1
really should buy him gift," probably are not
willing to buy the graduate gifts such as a
car, a house or a trip to Europe.
However, if you are shopping for a soon
to-be graduate, don’t despair.
Rowlena Young, manager of Ben Si
mon’s Gift Shop in Lincoln, said there were
several practical and inexpensive gift ideas
for graduates’ friends and relatives who
don’t want to pay a fortune.
Young said some traditional gift ideas
included book ends, picture frames, jewelry
boxes, paper weights and letter openers.
She said these items were usually more
popular for high school graduates who
were going away from home for the first
time, but shoppers for college graduates
also purchased them.
