I looked the spider's habitat up on my own & your professor appears to be correct. My mistake about it being in CA.
(although, it does apparently get found in packaging, etc, shipped from those areas).

According to Harry Williams, Professor; Robert Greene,
Graduate Assistant, Entomology and Plant Pathology; and Riley S.  
Rees, M.D., Vanderbilt University.

"The brown recluse spider is found in every county in Tennessee with  
the possible exception of a few extreme eastern counties. They are  
far more common in the western
half of the state. Their major range extends from central Texas to  
Alabama, north to southern Ohio and west to south- eastern Nebraska,  
Kansas and Oklahoma."

I suppose it can be found in California but I doubt it.
