  Because Mentors and Students take different surveys,

  Instead, we establish a SurveyRecordGroup.

  A SurveyRecordGroup links a group of survey records with a common
  project, and links back to its records. 

  This entity also includes the current project_status at its creation.
  This property is used as a filter in lookups and acts as a safeguard
  against unpredictable behavior.
