I don't mean to steer this back to the negative amid all of these positive posts but I did want to tack on something to Mr. Ostrow's initial post.

When you do end up stereotyping a team in the way that Mr. Ostrow points out, you're not only putting another team down but you are putting that team's students down. What pains me the most as a fellow mentor of Miss Daisy is having to explain to one of my students why someone may have said something to them that was off color in the midst of an atmosphere of "gracious professionalism". If you're thinking about saying something out loud like this, don't say it at all, least of all within earshot of one of my students. No team member needs to hear that when they may have only been on the team a mere handful of months.

And finally, I can corroborate all that Mr. Ostrow has said. Even though I'm a fellow mentor, I still call him "Mr. O" because I am one of those 341 graduates he speaks of!
