In the summer of 1971, the college was renamed Saint Joseph Calumet College. The college moved into its new facilities in January 1976 and is now using the largest of the twenty-three buildings on the site. The building underwent an initial two million dollar renovation. Calumet College of Saint Joseph has the facilities to serve more than 3,000 students during a given semester. Library capacity has increased from 80,000 volumes to 120,000.
Parking is ample and free.
The curriculum continues to grow, and the college presently offers programs in more than twenty-five fields of study including the region's only full degree programs in Accounting and Addictionology. A full evening program is available in addition to the daytime offerings. The college has pledged to eliminate time and space barriers which would limit the educational opportunity available to the area's citizens. Perhaps the most successful example of innovation is the Degree Completion Program, started in the late 80's, and now flourishing in communities throughout Northwest Indiana. Adults with two years of college attend class one night a week at a location near their home or work and earn a B.S. degree in Organization Management in about 18 months.
