I'm actually ahead of you on this one.

I just added a group on our  RAMADDA server that holds a list of links to the 
catalogs on external servers:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu/repository/entry/show/RAMADDA/IDV+Community+Resources/Servers?entryid=23dec561-b869-4e20-8b1b-f38e4659ebab

I have added a link to that group from our main IDV catalog under "Community 
Data Servers"
So, to get to virga just have your students open "Community Data Servers" and 
there will be the link to the catalog on virga.
