Total: Total number of cases (Active and Recovered) among Students, Faculty, and Staff, both on and off campus, since tracking began for the 2021-2022 academic year.
Active: Positive cases not yet recovered.
Recovered:
Able to resume normal activities.
As of Friday, May 13, 2022, we have suspended tracking cases for the 2021-2022 Academic Year.
To date, no cases of COVID-19 among the community of Edgewood College have required hospitalization.
Our Return to Better Task Force is taking steps to make that happen - not to return to ‘normal,’ but to return to better, applying all the lessons we have learned and continue to learn through the experience of the pandemic.
Again - getting vaccinated – for all who are eligible – is the best way to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We urge each member of our community to be vaccinated.

As a community we have followed the guidance of our public health professionals since the beginning of this pandemic. The CDC and the Wis. Department of Health Services recommends that all who are eligible be vaccinated against COVID-19.
Therefore, we too are strongly urging each member of our community to be vaccinated.
Students – we have created a simple form for you to update your COVID-19 vaccination status, and have sent you the link via email. You will indicate whether you have been vaccinated, whether you plan to but have not yet, or whether you do not plan to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
Please complete this simple form now, and no later than Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2021.
There will be continued updates for students as we approach our fall semester, including some very attractive reasons for completing the form. (Did someone say ‘big scholarships?’ And ‘free parking spaces?’) Please remember to check your email often throughout the summer.
If you have any questions, please email deanofstudents@edgewood.edu. If you need assistance finding a vaccination appointment, reach out, we are here to help!
Enjoy your summer!

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have suspended face-to-face classes effective Monday, March 23, 2020. We move to fully online classes at that time, until Monday, April 6, 2020 at the earliest. Please remember classes resume on Monday, March 23, 2020 – fully online.
Residence halls will close Friday, March 13, 2020 and will remain closed this year through Noon, Sunday, April 5, 2020 at the earliest. Residence halls are not accessible during this time unless otherwise arranged in advance.
If you are a resident student, and you need to discuss your housing, please contact the Dean of Students Office immediately.
Why Are We Doing This?
The shared goal is Social Distancing – when we avoid groups of people, we reduce the likelihood of transmitting germs to each other.
There will be limited access to campus buildings during spring break, and during the weeks following, as we practice Social Distancing on our campus and in our community.
Steps You Can Take
If you travel during Spring Break
Stay safe, and following the guidelines shared by the Centers for Disease Control, and by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. Refer to these often, as conditions continue to change rapidly.
Please monitor your email as we’ll share important information here, and that information can change rapidly. We’ve also updated www.edgewood.edu to provide resources and information next steps that may become necessary.
