For Students

Welcome Back students! Make sure you Mask Up, Back Up, and Wash Up. Lets keep our community safe. Just like Eddy!

Any question, big or small, can be answered by the Dean of Students Office.

FAQ:

How can I Mask Up, Back Up, and Wash Up effectively on campus? Wear your mask! Masks should cover your nose and mouth and should be worn indoors in public spaces and outdoors when you can not effectively be physically distant from others. If you do not own a mask, you may purchase one in the Campus Store. Back Up: practice physical distancing by leaving 6 feet between you and others. Wash up: wash your hands often.

What should I do if I was exposed to someone with COVID-19? Report any potential exposure or symptoms to the Dean of Students Office and follow any instructions they provide to seek medical care or to quarantine.

What should I do if I see another student who isn't wearing a mask? Remember, this is the year of community. Please remind them nicely to wear their mask. We are all doing this for each other. Should you have questions, you may contact the Dean of Students Office.

How will office hours be managed? All support services are still fully available to you; some are just offered in a different way. For example:

All seating areas for Phil’s and Wingra have been spaced out for social distancing. Also, Stations that used to be self-serve are now either served by Dining Staff or are single packaged items.
Health Services will see students for non-COVID concerns by appointment only. Personal counseling will be provided via telehealth.
Current information on library services during COVID-19 is available on on the library website.

An Update for Fall 2020: Athletics

Title : An Update for Fall 2020: Athletics

Posting Date / Time : Jul 27, 2020, 17:30 PM

Dear Students, Colleagues, Alumni, and Friends -

Some of you may be aware that earlier today, the presidents of the colleges and universities of the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference (NACC) announced that we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone all conference regular-season competitions and championship events through December 31, 2020. Student-athletes at the member institutions were notified on Friday evening. With 13 institutional conference members located in Chicago and the western suburbs, Milwaukee and suburbs, Madison, Fond du Lac, Rockford, Sheboygan, and elsewhere, we feel that travel among the schools within the conference increases the likelihood of introducing Covid-19 to campuses via student-athletes. So, out of an abundance of caution, we have reluctantly made this decision.

Speaking as a past president of the Council of Chief Executive Officers for the NACC, I can assure you the presidents in our conference are united in our commitment to the health and safety of our student-athletes. This is disappointing news, because it means that we will not have the chance to enjoy conference competition this fall. We do believe, though, the sacrifice is necessary as we all work toward the common goal of getting Covid-19 under control. We know that other NCAA Division III conferences in this part of the country have already made this decision, and we anticipate that most others will, as well.

Our coaches have been in touch with their students to assure them that they are still part of a team, and the team will have activities throughout the fall in preparation for competition in the spring. What that looks like will continue to take shape in the weeks ahead.

Remember, this fall we will be on campus, and in-person – as we committed to in the spring. Students and faculty will have the flexibility to join classes remotely depending on their individual circumstances. We will wear masks, practice social distancing, and yes – wash hands often. We will continue to follow the recommendations of our public health professionals. We will do this for each other, knowing this gives us the best opportunity for our students to achieve their goals at Edgewood College.

Students – we are looking forward to welcoming you back for the first day of classes Wednesday, August 19, 2020. I look forward to seeing each of you when classes begin!

Be well!

Cor ad cor loquitur.

– Andrew P. Manion, Ph.D., President
