The college Personal Counseling Services Office has created a post-election empowerment plan.
This is a worksheet designed to help you stay involved in the issues that are important to you. Our civic duty does not stop at the ballot box, and the impact of elections does not end once the outcome is certified.
This plan can also help you navigate your feelings about the election and the issues involved, as well as empower you to develop strategies to support and care for your community as well yourself. Download a copy from the link below.
If you need further support, don't hesitate to reach out to the Personal Counseling Services office here on campus.

Pencils, pens, and puzzles. Coffee mugs and candies. Even a yo-yo.
In honor of the recent Homecoming festivities, the library is pleased to present “Always an Eagle: Alumni Memorabilia from the Edgewood College Archives.”
When you graduate, most of what you’ll take with you will be your friendships and memories plus the knowledge and experiences gained from courses and extracurriculars. But maybe there will be a keepsake as well, some small item to serve as a reminder of your time on campus. Each object in our display does just that. From buttons to bumper stickers, they tell the stories of the Eagles who came before us.
“Always an Eagle” is located on the first floor of the library. When you come through the main entrance, turn left at the book display, head toward the Learning Lab, and look for our exhibit case along the wall.
Back in June, we put a prompt on the large library whiteboard to find out what the Edgewood community is reading. We got a lot of responses! So many that we decided to create a book display from titles that were shared. Stop by and check one out today.
Here's the list of books that were written down.
Unfortunately we don't own every one of these titles, but you can check the Library Catalog for print books, Libby for ebooks, or you can request any of these through Oscar Express.
