Whether your 2020 graduate will be celebrated at some point in the future, or the ceremony has been canceled altogether, the significance of graduation itself is certainly not diminished by the absence of a traditional ceremony. As is the case with any joyful rite of passage, tradition suggests commemorating this important, memorable time with a thoughtfully selected gift.
A fascinating academic paper called Remembering the Details: Effects of Emotion by Elizabeth A Kensinger discusses how memories formed during emotional times are remembered significantly more clearly, and remembered for life, than memories of everyday events, which may be misremembered or forgotten completely. Since graduation is such a hard-won, long-anticipated victory for your graduate, you may feel a bit of pressure to choose a gift that will be well-received and well-remembered! Let us help you! We have many thoughtful, appropriate gift ideas for you to consider. Here are just a few!
