The action-packed tournament features teams competing with and against other schools in a series of back-to-back robot challenges.

Riverland President's Column -- December 2013
Riverland Community College is already wrapping up fall semester and preparing for a new semester to start January 13 in the new year. Our communities may be aware of the programs and courses we offer on our campuses or online, but I have been extremely impressed with some of the partnership opportunities that leverage the talents of our colleagues in the area’s K-12 systems.
