This looks like it could be one of the standards. 
The graphics is updated, the awsome red SG and t-shirt, all pointing to one direction.

Wow it all makes sense Boris ! I had to buy an orange Es-335 due to blues immersion GAS and will need a red SG because of RIM. Oh that was not the point of your post, oops I misunderstood ! just kidding !!! 
You are right I can see that many of the latest songs could be into a RIM standards like War Pigs, Ozzy Osbourne, ZZ TOP, Black Cat, Skid Row

Buyer beware.
As a 335 clone owner (Gretsch and 2 Washburns) and an Black Gibson SG, Iād have to say that an LP is the ultimate rock tool . . ā¦ or my ASAT Teles 
But they all work for the Blues and thus feed the Rock Blues that followed. Its not what you got but the way that you play it.
Watching with interest.

Then RIM (Rock Immersion) students will be ā¦
Oh my sweet holy mother of all outrages.

Good Iām not having breakfast at the moment
Maybe another reason to abbreviate it as RIC (Rock Immersion Course) then?
āRiccers/Rickersā sounds close to āRockersā
But Iām not a native speaker, so maybe youāll find better options.
PS. Would be boring anyway if all the big courses will be called Xā¦IM

Not to forget about SWIM (Song Writing Immersion) ā¦ 
How about RIP? 
ā¦ = Rock Immersion Project
Blimmers would be Rippers 
ā¦ associations would mostly be positive, I thought ( well until I thought about R.I.P. and Jack theā¦) But given that potentially many a power chord will be murdered and many a bend will be strangled along the way, how about?
