Should the professor make you cut your hair for the class? Absolutely not.

Should you cut your hair for the business world? You're be stupid if you didn't.

His point, though presented wrongly, is correct. You will be judged on your appearance. Even though this isn't 1950, the United States (and the world) is becoming increasingly conservative. Long hair on guys DOES NOT give the first impression that you're a go-getter; instead, it makes you look like a pot-smoking lazy slacker. Tell the guy to shove it up his ass, but do yourself a favor and get a trim before your first interview.
