(Key words right there: They might have had them, but they didn't stand out.)

To hell with spacers and such, they should probably consider just taking them out if they're getting ready to graduate. UNLESS they're in a forgiving field like graphic design, art, etc. facial piercings will likely not be acceptable to their future employer. Get it out of your system now, college kiddos.
