That's true! I know the people heading up the mentors have mentioned that really the only time mentors get bad feedback is if they accept the solution without comment.

Another thing that I've found handy is to become a student in other tracks (and even the ones I'm mentoring!). It's really, really helpful to see how other mentors do it. It gives you a feel for how much to say, how much to nitpick, how cryptic of hints to give, etc. :)
