The aim of this experimental Linux distribution is to provide to the student population at large an operating system that is easy to install and use and provides an alternative to the traditional commercial operating systems. CollegeLinux is a Slackware derived Linux (2.4.23) distribution on a single CD that weighs in at 600 MB.

Unless some has ported it, Plastik is only for KDE 3.2, so of course they don't have it. You can't expect any distro with stable software to have it.
As far as the window resizing is concerned, its not surprising you were having trouble with an Athlon 550. If when KPersonalizer ran (it usually does the first time you start KDE; if it doesn't in CollegeLinux then that is a legitimate concern) you had selected less eye-candy, then it would have resized with an outline instead of resizing the window itself.
I also don't see how you could be surprised by a lack of Gnome. It would be inappropriate for a one CD distro to have both, in my opinion.
