Registered Sex Offender List

The Rock Valley College Police Department (RVCPD) maintains a registered sex offender list, which identifies all known registered sex offenders who are currently enrolled as students or employees at Rock Valley College. Illinois state law requires all institutions of higher education to make registered sex offender information available to anyone who requests it.

This registered sex offender list is available for viewing, on the Main Campus, at the RVCPD office in the Support Services Building (SSB), Room 1100 and at the Welcome (Information) Center on the first floor of the Student Center (SC); the Workforce Development office on North Main Street; and the Rock Valley College Downtown (RVCD) location. Registered sex offenders who fail to register their status as a student or employee at an institution of higher education are in violation of the Sex Offender Registration Act, which is a Class 3 Felony, and may be arrested. In addition to registering with the RVCPD, registered sex offenders must also meet with the Dean of Students or designee prior to the beginning of each semester they enroll.

This mandate applies to all RVC courses including General Education Development (GED) (formerly High School Equivalency/HSE), English as a Second Language (ESL), Adult Basic Education (ABE), and Community/ Continuing Education; and also to students registered as part-time status (less than 12 credit hours) and enrolled students of collaborative and partnership programs.
