Replying to Looking for a BMX bike: Need some help.

Hey everyone, so I'm going to college next year and I am looking to get a nice BMX bike for a graduation present! I was hoping someone here could help me with some good bike companies and maybe could point me towards a few specific bikes. What I'm looking for is a street bmx bike that is lightweight and around 400-500$. I am mostly going to be using it for commuting to classes and back, and also just rolling around campus. The reason I am not just looking for a regular bike is I will be using it in the skatepark and hopefully halfpipe a little bit (I used to bmx a few years back). Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out, I am just pretty clueless about specs, havn't looked at bikes in a LONG time and figured someone in this community is into bmx.
