An Update for Fall 2020: Athletics

Jul 27, 2020, 5:30 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

Preventing the spread

In order to do everything we can to keep all of our community as safe as possible, the Edgewood College community will adhere to a number of safety protocols during the 2020-2021 Academic Year as a way of minimizing risk of the spread of COVID-19. These protocols are based on guidelines provided by Public Health Madison Dane County.

As a member of this Community, I will…

  • Wash my hands properly and regularly.
  • Cover any coughs or sneezes.
  • Comply with posted Public Health Madison Dane County requirements.  
  • Wear a mask covering my nose and mouth while in indoor spaces.
  • Maintain social distancing.
  • Assist in the use of disinfectant wipes to clean shared public workspaces prior to use.
  • Take reasonable precautions to avoid contracting COVID-19 both on- and off-campus.
  • Avoid public places and minimize interpersonal contacts if I have been exposed or have any symptoms of any illness.
  • Report any potential exposure or symptoms to the College and follow any instructions to seek medical care or to quarantine.
  • Agree to be tested for COVID-19, as prescribed by health care professionals. Agree to be cooperative and flexible as we work together to support one another and give our community the best balance of learning and safety.
