THE CAMPUS
Caldwell
College is located in a residential community in suburban Caldwell, New
Jersey, on a 70-acre campus surrounded by wooded areas. The neighborhood
provides a high degree of privacy and security and easy access to the
town center which has a variety of shops and restaurants. At the same
time, the College’s close proximity to New York City—20 miles—
allows students to enjoy diverse educational, cultural and social experiences.
Caldwell is convenient to routes 46, 23, 80, 280 and 287 and the Garden
State Parkway. Located 30 minutes from Jersey City, Newark, Morristown,
Boonton, and Piscataway, the campus can be reached by almost every form
of transportation. Home to many major corporate headquarters, northern
New Jersey offers students a variety of practical internship and job opportunities.
The campus is currently comprised of a nine building complex. The Academic
Building is a state-of-the-art facility that includes multi-media and
computer capabilities which provide instruction in alternate formats.
The building is wired with fiber-optic cable and linked to other campus
facilities, including our satellite receiver. Rosary Hall, located in
the Administration Building, contains two floors of student residence
as well as numerous administrative offices; it is linked to Aquinas Hall
which includes classrooms and other administrative offices. Many support
services, from Admissions to Alumni Affairs, are located in this complex.
The 
Student
Center includes a cafeteria, lounge, snack bar, gymnasium, fitness center,
and student activity offices. It is linked to the Visceglia Art Center,
which is an academic building comprising classrooms and faculty offices.
Albertus Magnus and Raymond Halls are the two wings of the science building,
containing classrooms, laboratories, science faculty offices, and the
Academic Support Center. The facility underwent a $1 million renovation
project during the summer of 2002, and an additional $750,000 renovation
project was completed during the summer of 2003. The Library was expanded
in 1993 to include additional stack space, the Center for Continuing Education,
and a Theatre completely equipped with the latest technology in multimedia
and satellite communication. Mother Joseph Residence Hall provides housing
facilities for the majority of campus residents.
A loop roadway and expanded parking facilities were completed in the fall of 2000. Construction of the George R. Newman Center was completed during the spring of 2002 and full use of the building began in the fall of 2002. This facility houses all of the College’s athletic and fitness programs and provides additional space for student activities and organizations including the Student Development Center, the Office of Campus Ministry and the Manning Campus Store.
Special
instructional facilities include general and discipline-specific computer
laboratories, a television and radio studio, art studios and gallery,
a music center and practice rooms, a language laboratory and an academic
support center.
In 2006, a new main entrance to the College from Bloomfield Avenue was completed. Construction is underway to build a new apartment style residence hall on Caldwell College’s campus.
