First question should be why, not how. If its to import RCS repository into
a newer and more able source code control system, then you go to:
http://www.gnu.org/software/rcs/rcs.html
and load the program, enter directory where you loaded the file, unpack it
like so:

tar xvfz rcs-xxxxx.tar.gz

cd rcs-xxxxxx/
./configure
make
make install

./rcs

... etc etc.

Suggestion for your student, for systems to be used: bazaar-ng and subversion.
All easily locatable on google.
