Re: Fwd: Python use at colleges and universities

I started a wiki page to track the school info and simplify additions 
and editing. This isn't just about learning Python, it is about Python 
being used to teach, whatever the subject. There should probably be 
links and quotes about why Python is a better introductory language for 
CS students than say C++ or Java. There should be other info and quotes 
for why Python is a better language to use for teaching graphics, doing 
Physics, etc.

I'm design challenged, so if someone can think of a better organization 
or layout then feel free to pretty it up. Periodically, we could 
transform the wiki page into static pages, flyers, and handouts for 
marketing purposes.

Note that I linked to the edited Introducing Python video, not the 
original, since I still think the "love story" in the original detracts 
from the "sales pitch" and the edited version is much smaller.
