I would look at using Puppet (or another programatic solution) to
provision the WSGI configuration components.

You could require that students request the WSGI service before using
it, and then if they request it, deploy the necessary files and
refresh httpd.

Most of the stuff that needs to be deployed per user instance should
be pretty self contained, and having a script or configuration
management system provision that stuff will ensure that things are
done uniformly.  Puppet can be used to manage an entire system, but
you can also use a very scaled back configuration to manage just
httpd, or even just the mod_wsgi files that each user requires.
