Within the Academic Center is a library-media center with over 32,000 volumes and 120 periodical subscriptions. The Learning Center and the Writing Center have both Macintosh and Windows computers for student and faculty use, all with full internet access.

Athletic facilities include the 180,000 square foot Sports and Activities Center, an outdoor lake, 14 tennis courts, a 4000-seat stadium with an all-weather track, and five additional fields for soccer, lacrosse, and baseball.

In 1993, McCallie opened the Sports and Activities Center (SAC) an exceptional facility for students activities, athletics, and recreation. The award winning design is being compared to sports centers at top colleges and universities. The SAC includes a 25 yard by 25 yard natatorium, a 200-meter track, a main performance court with seating for 1500, two lower basketball courts, a fitness and weight training room, two wrestling practice rooms, racquetball courts, and administrative support areas.

The Student Activity Center is a popular gathering place for students to relax and socialize at the end of the day. on the weekends, and even between classes. Students can play pool, table tennis, air hockey, and video games; watch a large screen TV; or eat in the snack bar.
