I am no expert, but I believe $CATALINA BASE would only be helpful if everyone had his or her own Tomcat server each of which pulled classes and other files from a base install. That's most useful for clustering. Netbeans is a free IDE from Sun that comes with it's own internal Tomcat server bundled inside the IDE. Consider incorporating it in your class. I am very impressed with it's debugger, and each student might benefit from breaking and fixing the server.xml. Besides, at some point everyone in Javaland needs to deal with an IDE. If you insist on having a central server, then you want something similar to apache's public_html. http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/public_html.html I don't know if Tomcat alone has that functionality, but you might get what you need by Apache running tomcat as a module.
