Academic Based Clubs

Sociology Research Club
Hello there! Please don't let the word "sociology" intimidate you--we approach this study through watching clips of the viral and somewhat controversial YouTube videos/shows. We then discuss the motivations of the content creators and featured individuals, the social psychology theories, and more! Finally, we write our research paper. You can choose to be part of the writing process; it will take 1 or 2 months. Once we're done, we will publish it (publication place TBD)! Pull up to our meetings. It’s gonna be so much fun!!

The GirlTalk Magazine
The GirlTalk Magazine is a student-run international intersectional feminist magazine that was brought to Cate in 2021. It is dedicated to empowering young women and girls to start and spread the discussion of important topics surrounding education, the environment, mental health, etc, through bimonthly issues. This club is for those who are interested in anything regarding a magazine like writing, editing, art, social media, outreach, and more!

Data Science Club
At Cate School, the Data Science Club introduces students to data science through engaging activities. We invite alumni and guest speakers to share their experiences. Students receive hands-on lessons to build essential skills and work on real projects addressing school-related issues. By using data to solve problems, we aim to improve our community and make a positive impact at Cate.


Ewe Speaks
Ewe Speaks is Cate's most prominent intellectual club. Although it is centered around speech and debate, Ewe Speaks hosts a variety of different events, on and off campus, in forensics, ethics, quiz bowl, and etc... Ewe Speaks is now the organization behind Not at the Dinner Table (NDT) casual discussion events, the Ewe Speaks Speaker Series, as well as the Cate Quiz Bowl competition.

Writing Dangerously
Writing Dangerously is Cate's creative writing club, where we encourage students to embrace creativity, take risks with their language, and stretch the bounds of narratives. Whether its blackout poetry, memoirs, or freeform writing, we delve into the art of expression in all its forms—so come out to write with love and danger!

Cate Law Review
Cate Law Review provides students the opportunity to analyze Supreme Court cases, the Constitution, and judicial systems through article writing and discussions. At the end of the year, we will publish an online journal of student contributions and arrange for a small group to observe a live court trial.

Philosophy Club
Philosophy club is open to anyone who wants to have a thoughtful conversation. In Philosophy Club, we discuss various philosophical topics, both formally and casually. Our plan is to hold a casual meeting every week and a formal one every 4 weeks. In regards to the formal meetings, the prompt of the discussion will be announced one week prior, so that everybody has time to prepare. This club helps drive student inquiry and deep thinking.


Classics Club
Classics Club brings the worlds of Ancient Greece and Rome to life, demonstrating the influence of these societies. Whether it's political theory, linguistics, law, literature, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, arts, polemology, economics, theology, or even international business, the classical world has many wisdoms no matter one's interests. We will also work to brings these societies to life through symposiums and conviviums (classical parties) and many more fun activities. Vivat Roma!


DREAM
We aim to enhance child literacy and to increase opportunities for higher education. We have annual book drives and service marathons to support the Jesuit Xavier School and the FOCO orphanage in Cambodia. Some DREAM members visit the school and the orphanage over the summer to organize the books we sent. If you are excited to share the joy of reading, come out!
