We give them an inscribed Bible with their name/badge number on the front cover.

That sounds SO special!!!! Not ideal for APO (I don't even know everyone's religions and have never thought about it), but something I might rip-off and duplicate for APhiA.

I am always into practical gifts...I don't know what kind of budget you are on, but a nice portfolio-thingy for job interviews and such is something every grad can use.

(portfolio is not quite the right word, I don't think. I am thinking of the thingy that is about the size of a notebook, and you open it up, and it holds a legal pad on one side, and some pens and maybe business cards on the other)

I'm pretty sure that's what it's called..... and it's not a bad idea. I wonder if we can afford that.

I think they are about $7-$10 each if you don't get leather. I have a very nice one that isn't.

Here in Oklahoma, most everyone is Christian in some respect. Thus far, I don't think we've ever initiated a non-Christian. One of my fellow graduating seniors and I were/are Catholics. The Catholic Bible contains just a few more books than the Protestant Bible... So no, amongst all of the Catholic Bibles on my bookshelf, I have that one Protestant Bible... no biggie. If I ever get a hankerin' to look something in up in the Book of Tobit, I have plenty of other Bibles where I can find that
