Graduation Gift Ideas by GiftWorksPlus
Now that May is finally here, we are officially entering graduation season! And as college students gear up for their final exams, we at GiftWorksPlus wanted to share some awesome gift ideas to help you honor your hard-working grads.
Rather than buy a traditional card or give cash, why not choose from our wide selection of custom gifts and unique souvenirs. Our college-themed wooden engraved frames make for creative, personalized gifts that graduating students, parents, and grandparents can all enjoy!
In the spirit of college graduation, we thought we’d share some fun facts about famous U.S. colleges and universities:

  1. Southampton College gave an honorary degree to Kermit the Frog after he gave an address at their graduation.
  2. Lincoln University requires students with a BMI of 30 or higher to enroll in a physical education class before they graduate.
  3. The University of Pennsylvania was founded before Pennsylvania was even a state.
  4. Also, at the University of Pennsylvania, spectators throw toast onto the campus football field during the third quarter to give a “toast” to their team.
  5. Similarly, but a little less hygienic, at the University of New Hampshire, students throw fish onto the ice.
  6. The University of Michigan has a club that is solely devoted to feeding squirrels; it’s known on campus as “squirrel club.”
  7. A graduate student at Indiana University accidentally invented Crest toothpaste when he wasn’t paying attention during a lab class.
  8. Ohio University is considered the most haunted university. The University of Montana is also rumored to have paranormal activity.
  9. The word “campus” was invented to describe Princeton University.
  10. Villanova University students manage the Pope’s social media accounts.
  11. Rice University has a “puppy room” during finals week, where students go to play with puppies and relax.

A room full of puppies may not exactly be a feasible gift for your favorite graduate, but luckily, GiftWorksPlus can help you find equally awesome college graduation gifts that require less clean up.
