In your first message (with the old version of Sage) you had:

    students-MacBook-Pro:~ student$ /Users/student/sage/sage/sage 

It should look like this. In your more recent message (with a good version 
of Sage), though, you had:

    students-MacBook-Pro:~ student$ 
/Volumes/sage-7.2.beta0-OSX_10.11.4-x86_64/SageMath/sage ; exit;

The part "/Volumes/..." indicates that you dragged the "sage" file from the 
disk image to "Terminal", not the "sage" file from the copied version. Make 
sure you use "sage" from the copied version. It might be safest to first 
copy "SageMath" (as you have done) and then eject the disk image. Then 
proceed to drag the "sage" file to "Terminal".
