No, but one day after school, after the teacher had left I did try diverting
all input / output to the console (a selectric type). Only problem was while
there was a way to do this, there was apparently no way to go back to using
the card reader, printer. 

That DID need an IBM CE to come and reload the disk pack! Took him about
two hours as I remember, and several boxes of punch cards.
