Listener considers creating graduation gift registry for MBA celebration

An NPR listener graduating with an MBA is considering creating a gift registry for her celebration. She asks if this is appropriate, similar to wedding registries. Advice columnist Sophia Benoit acknowledges the awkwardness of registries but supports the idea. She suggests framing it as an invitation to celebrate a milestone, allowing guests to choose gifts if they wish. Benoit encourages humor and openness in the invitation, noting that those who disapprove can simply opt out. She emphasizes that embracing generosity is part of celebrating achievements.
