Washburn donated Edgewood Villa and a 55-acre estate by Lake Wingra to the Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa. They relocated St. Regina Academy to this site, which later became Sacred Heart Academy after a fire in 1893. This school eventually split into Edgewood High School and Edgewood Campus School. In 1927, Edgewood College was established as a junior college for women with a two-year liberal arts curriculum. It shared a building with the high school. In 1940, it expanded into a senior college, initially focusing on teacher preparation. Edgewood College received accreditation in 1958. The campus evolved with the addition of new buildings like Mazzuchelli Biological Station, Regina Hall, DeRicci Hall, Todd Wehr Edgedome, and Weber Hall during the 1950s and 60s. Male students arrived in the mid-1960s, and coeducation became official in 1970. Key facilities were added over the years, including the Oscar Rennebohm Library in 1991, Sister Marie Stephen Reges Hall in 1994, and the Sonderegger Science Center in 1999. The Henry J. Predolin Humanities Center opened in 2000. Edgewood College expanded its offerings with programs like the Weekend Degree Program in 1979 and graduate programs in various fields since 1985. In 2001-2002, a doctoral program in education was introduced, followed by online courses in 2011 and a Doctor of Nursing Practice in 2013-2014. Dominican Hall, the largest residence hall, was opened in 2007 and received LEED certification. The Stream, a visual and theater arts center, also achieved LEED certification in 2012. Today, Edgewood College serves 2,000 students across various disciplines, continuing its commitment to student-centric education and its Dominican Mission of fostering a just and compassionate world.
