Get familiar with how online courses work at RLC. Maybe you are wondering if online classes are right for you. There's a section on that, as well as answers to common questions about Canvas, MyRLC, tech requirements and more.
Have access to a computer and internet connection: Online learning is simply not possible without these resources. Students should make arrangements to make sure they have these resources moving forward.
Find a tutor: Just because you can’t meet face-to-face doesn’t mean you can’t get help with your coursework. Online tutoring is available for those looking for assistance. We will be using the Zoom app for all online tutoring. To join an online zoom tutoring session please contact Joseph Marlo via Email. [email protected]. Below is a list of currently available times and sections for tutoring, if these times do not work for you please let Joseph Marlo ([email protected]) know. Any other online tutoring will be set upon request but does not have weekly slots currently. Please contact Joseph Marlo with any questions.
Ask for help: If you run into issues accessing accounts or navigating the shift to online classes, you can always contact the Help Desk. We'll be monitoring emails and calls from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm Monday – Friday. Send an email to [email protected] or call 618-437-5321, Ext. 1259. The Help Desk cannot send usernames or passwords via email, but if students leave a phone number in the email, the Help Desk will call them back with their info. Response time will vary depending on the volume of requests. Please be patient — someone will contact you as soon as possible. For more information about online classes at RLC, visit www.rlc.edu/online.
Login NOW: Make sure you can access your Canvas and Warriormail accounts before you need to submit assignments. Some students have run into issues when logging into those accounts on their personal computers for the first time. The programs may not recognize the device. Avoid frustration and panic by making sure you have access to what you need as soon as possible. Login to Warriormail first. Students who try to login to their Canvas account before accessing Warriormail will likely run into a 403 error message. To avoid this error, students should log in to Warriormail first.
Check your assignment dates: Not everything is due at the end of the week. Most online classes have assignments due on Fridays. But that is not the case for ALL classes as RLC makes its shift online. Students need to check their assignment dates for all courses because classes may differ.

An informal complaint should be addressed with the appropriate faculty or staff member. If the issue is not resolved, the student may initiate a formal complaint by submitting the online form. The complaint will be assigned to an administrator to investigate and render a decision.

Any questions regarding the complaint process should be directed to the Vice President of Student Services. Rend Lake College is committed to resolving student complaints in a prompt and fair manner. The college works diligently to find positive resolutions to all student concerns. Please exhaust all avenues of complaint resolution both informally and formally before going outside the College.
If you are an Out of State student and have a complaint that you feel has not been resolved through the formal complaint process, you may file a complaint with the state in which you reside. In compliance with federal and state regulations, the list of state agencies with contact information for each state is listed here: Student Complaint Information by State. You may also contact the Illinois Community College Board regarding complaints where you feel the College’s resolution is unreasonable.
