Clojure/core hasn't yet been accepted as an organization - and it might not at all!
I have a feeling the more great ideas that students propose, the more people step up as potential mentors - the more compelling it is to choose an organization. So far we've seeded the proposal list with some mentor ideas. However you might not find anything in this list interesting! So propose something you're excited about :) This is a 100% community driven effort. The key component is some familiarity with Clojure. An ambitious student with a background in Scheme, Common Lisp, Standard ML, Haskell, Scala, Prolog, etc. would probably also do well.
