Learning Support

Each of us learns in our own way. The Learning Support Services (LSS) office has been created to make sure that you get the support you need to succeed academically. LSS is located in the Student Resource Center, DeRicci 206, and in Sonderegger 408; please call 663-2281 or visit the LSS website for more information.

Disability Services
If you are a student with a documented disability and are interested in accommodations, contact the Disabilities Services Coordinator in the SRC. We want to do whatever we can to make sure that you have every opportunity to learn; for that to happen, students needing disability services need to let us know as soon as possible the types of support needed. All requests for services and disabilities documentation is confidential. If you have questions about services, accommodations, or documentation contact the Disabilities Services Coordinator, by phone at 608-663-2278, or by email at LOConnell@edgewood.edu. You may also visit our web site at http://edgenet.edgewood.edu/lss/DisabilityServices/default.htm.

Drop by the Writing Center
If you need to write a paper, the Writing Center, located in DeRicci 206, is the place to go. You can come with writing assignments from any class at any stage of the writing process—no appointment necessary. From brainstorming to final touches, we can help you communicate more clearly. Open hours are posted at the beginning of each semester and at the start of the summer term! http://edgenet.edgewood.edu/LSS/writingcenter/
