INA, Ill. (June 11, 2015) - Representatives from Continental Tire the Americas (CTA) visited Rend Lake College earlier this week to tour campus and share ideas and trends affecting the industry. During the tour, representatives from CTA stopped by the Pathway to Success walkway leading to the Allen Y. Baker Administration Building. In June 2014, CTA became the lead donor for the RLC Foundation's Pathway to Success project with a $25,000 pledge that helped to renovate the walkway and provide funds to establish an endowed scholarship for future RLC students.
