I heard your host is a slave driver and an asshole.  You should start
getting some extra sleep now so you can work 200 hours a week during
the summer. Your first task will be to figure out how to find the
extra 32 hours for each week.  :-)

I think it's reasonable to take a couple hours here and there to help
mentor.  How much time did it take to mentor last year per student? 
How could you do a better job (invest less time and get more out of
the student)?  ISTM like it's mostly just keeping in touch via email.
