Correct me if I am misunderstand your intended use case. If all you want to do is aggregation events from multiple users, the best way to handle that is to with calendar subscription.
The API allows you to manage calendar subscriptions for sharing purposes. So if you have a bunch of students whose accounts you try to aggregate then you will create a master calendar which subscribes to all the student calendar. Feature request to API can be filed here - http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/entry Be sure to be very specific about the particular use case for the feature request, thanks!
