MADISON — The Board of Trustees of Edgewood College announced that Dr. Scott Flanagan will serve as the 7th president of Edgewood College.

“I am deeply grateful for the faith that the Board and this community have placed in me to lead Edgewood College,” Flanagan said. “We can take great pride in the institution that we’ve become, and our best days remain before us. With our students, faculty, staff and Board leadership, we are poised to build on our recent successes and reach even greater heights. Edgewood College’s mission to build a just and compassionate world through educating students has never been more important, and it is my privilege to be invited to serve as its President.”
“Scott has prepared himself to be a highly effective college president,” President Dan Carey said. “I’m thrilled that his leadership will be at Edgewood College. His breadth of experience here means he is ready to hit the ground running on day one. Scott’s professional experience and personal values are a perfect match with our Dominican liberal arts college.”
