Cate has eight dormitories, many with stunning views of the Santa Barbara Channel and Santa Ynez Mountains. Almost all students live in single rooms, most with balconies or patios. The Katharine Thayer Cate Memorial Chapel, with its elegant stained-glass windows, provides a beautiful setting for concerts, Tuesday Talks, and contemplation.
Cate’s athletic and outdoor program facilities include two gyms: the Fleischmann Gymnasium with two squash courts and a basketball court, and the Caryll M. and Norman F. Sprague, Jr. Gymnasium, with two regulation-size basketball courts, two volleyball courts, and a fully equipped fitness center.
For outdoor sports, there are three athletic fields, an all-weather track, baseball and softball diamonds, eight tennis courts, and a heated swimming pool. The campus also boasts the Claire Andriveau Drake Memorial Ropes Course, a technical climbing tower, and a bouldering cave installed in 2010.
The recently constructed Emmett Horowitz Aquatic Center is comprised of a training room, locker rooms, and two pools. The first is a regulation-sized, heated swimming pool used by Cate's Water Polo and Swim teams. The second, smaller pool is heated year-round for recreational use by the Cate community.
