Most SymPy projects would require that the group members have a knowledge of mathematics (for whatever they are working on). A lot of CS students double in mathematics, so that's not unheard of.
For ideas, I would just suggest the GSoC ideas page. I don't know how well they would work for groups. Is it better to have a project that would go in SymPy or something that would stay separate? Anyway, it sounds like the mentoring is not much and I can probably help out with it.
