Hey Greg, At Clemson University, we use JupyterHub (http://jupyterhub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to provide Jupyter Notebook servers for our workshop attendees. Our JupyterHub setup uses our university HPC cluster hardware, but it's possible to use other hardware, such as a beefy workstation, a small lab cluster, cloud resources etc., Our attendees need no software installed except a web browser. All they do is log-in to JupyterHub with their university credentials, and they are presented with a Notebook Server (file browser, terminal, Jupyter notebooks) running on one of the compute nodes of our cluster.
I'm happy to discuss our setup in detail, and a small write-up detailing it is available at https://github.com/clemsonciti/palmetto-jupyterhub-outline/blob/master/outline.md.
