Our group is at the University of Chicago and we use python for many  
data related tasks, but as of yet, we have no experience with it in  
teaching situations.

If you're looking to head to the UofC, be advised that the UofC is  
out of the way when it comes to Chicago geography and public  
transportation -- it's not especially near any of the elevated train  
lines and is most easily accessed by car/taxi or bus from downtown  
(we're about 7 miles (~11-12km) south of downtown).
