I think the important part of this advice that is often left out is that the real need here is for leaders to take on each of those tasks and help guide the other members through. Whether those leaders are adults or students can depend on mentor availability but you need people responsible for making those items happen.

Basically an important part of the solution to having too many students is to increase your number of leaders. Mentors, students, what have you.
