What is a a good gift for a university professor?

I'd like to give something to my professor since I am graduating soon. His office is filled with gift items from previous students from all over the world. I'd like to give him something unique. Any suggestions? What can I give him that he already doesnt have?

Well, what's your budget and what subject was it? No matter what, the best gift you can give to a professor is to write a letter explaining how much you learned from them and what an influence they had over your time at school. Professors remember--and appreciate--those things even more than gifts.
Maybe a nice book.
Hello. Well, how about a huge Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary... OR a CD-ROM encyclopedia?? I'm sorry... I'm in a silly mood tonight. Maybe it's my dinner affecting me. Okay.. seriously now: How about gift certificates for a really fine restaurant, one he would not buy for himself potentially? I saw this site online for gifts for professors... here it is: http://www.cafepress.com/buy/professor/?click=true&recexp=a&CMP=KNC-G-IN-EDU&ovchn=GGL&ovcpn=Education+and+Science+Basic&ovcrn=sr2HS1go115987go4855pi7ai2674+professor+gift&ovtac=PPC&SR=sr2HS1go115987go4855pi7ai2674. Good luck.
An interesting book and/or an awesome pen--preferably red ink!
