If you have administrator privileges on the student account, you can switch to root using...

$ sudo su -

...then use the student password of student. Then you can change the root user's password.

Also, on some Red Hat lab environments (earlier NetLab ones for RHEL 8, for example), the password for root is: R3dH4t
