<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Hi,</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">I find myself in the
enviable position that multiple students have expressed interest
in a single idea that I suggested on the ideas page. So far I’ve
been responding to each one with encouragement, but I don’t want
to give the impression that we’ve committed to their project.
After all, we want to see their same-project contributions
first. Is this the right approach, or should I be pickier at
this stage, to avoid raising false hopes?<br>
