About University
Edgewood College is a private Dominican college in Madison, Wisconsin. The college occupies a 55 acres (22 ha) campus overlooking the shores of Lake Wingra.
The Edgewood College property was bought in 1855 by Mr. Ashmead from Governor Leonard J. Farwell and later developed by Samuel Marshall. He added to the land by planting trees, formal gardens, and climbing grapevines on trellises. Governor Cadwallader Washburn purchased Edgewood Villa in 1873, making it his home. Later, he donated it to the Dominican Sisters for educational purposes.
