In actuality it would be very difficult for someone to get an offer from a law firm, accounting firm, investment firm or banking institution if they showed up at the interview with a blinged out grill. Right or wrong, this is a reality, and they would be doing their students a disservice if they didn't prepare them for this now.

I see your point, but I think that when you're a kid you should be able to dress crazy if you want. It's the one time in most people's lives that they are NOT expected to conform to the relatively conservative dress codes of most employers. Why not let them have some fun?
