You can use the Athena dialup machine at athena.dialup.mit.edu to access your Athena account (and Python) via ssh (with X-forwarding enabled) from a terminal:

$ ssh -X USERNAME@athena.dialup.mit.edu

where USERNAME is your Athena username. Enter your Athena password. After logging in, run the command:

$ add -f 6.01

and then you can run the proper version of Python with python3.
