The Ultimate Gift Guide for the High School or College Graduate

My college graduation day was hands down one of the best days of my life. I wish I could graduate again (well, I guess I could get that master’s degree…) but until then, I’ll be living vicariously through the Class of 2014 this year.

Whether you’re graduating from high school and leaving home for the first time, headed to grad school, or entering the workforce, a college grad’s life is about to change drastically. Hook your grad up with a quality gift to ensure that the transition to the next stage of life is seamless.

Under $100
