The easiest thing to do is reformat the machine and install a complete new operating system. There's no sense in trying to repair a hand-me-down OS which is probably filled with all kinds of unwanted rubbish anyway.
The admin of the college probably set up an admin login so that only they can access the C contents of the drive. They're not going to want to give you passwords for that as they probably use the same ones on the remaining college machines.
