Gift for professor?

<p>A professor has just given me a research position in his lab. I'm planning to go to his office and present him a gift as a gesture of thanks. </p>

<p>Do you think this is a good idea? and will not be interpretted as a student "bribing " profs for special favors (hint better grades)?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Not a good idea. Give him a thank you card instead.</p>

<p>I think if you were going to give him/her something it might make more sense to wait until after you have finished your time together.</p>
