Summary
'I Am A Classroom Zombie' badge, alternatively known as a button, used in Melbourne, between 1979 - 1986. The exact origin and meaning of the slogan is unknown. It is possibly a reference to a perceived need on the part of students to think for themselves, not unquestioningly absorb material presented to them in the classroom and so not become zombies.
Physical Description
