 === 10. What criteria did you use to select the individuals who will act as mentors for your organization? Please be as specific as possible. ===
+
+Our mentors are usually active developers in the community. Most of the mentors proposed ideas we list on our ideas page and are therefore familiar with the topics.
+
 === 11. What is your plan for dealing with disappearing students? ===
+
+We require contact information from our students as part of the application. Students should report at least once a week their progress to their mentor. We know from past experiences that a student can just disappear without a absence notice, but if this happens we will not let them pass midterm or the evaluation at the end. Of course we will make this clear from the very beginning of the program and students will be aware that they are required to report back.
