A video making the rounds on social captured the moment a lecturer interrupted an ongoing class to address the hairstyle of one of his students.

The man pulled out scissors and pointed them at the student’s hair, cutting it in an uneven way to fit his idea of what a good college haircut should look like.

Now that the video has gone viral, people on social media are angry at the lecturer for breaking the law without following the right procedures.
