The Internet Classroom and its related classes give due respect to the vision (and execution) of the movie(s) "The Matrix."

Thus, there exists a tradition during which all respectable associates of the class are to be clad in completely black outfits. The purpose of such an exercise is twofold. One: To demonstrate our enthusiasm for the class as a whole. Two: To create an astonishing image during the class photo.

This year, the date for the tradition rests on the 23rd of July. We encourage participation from all on this Monday. Remember, the point is not to wear black, but to follow the Matrix style. Wearing black is merely a focal point for recreating the feel of the Matrix. Half-hearted emulation is not tolerable.

July 23rd.
