title: Is it possible to create a custom mongodb cursor in meteor?
body: <p>I have a Student collection and a Person Collection.
  Person contains the fields: name, address, etc
  Student contains: rollno, and a person field that stores the person._id for this student</p>
  
  <p>Now I want to show the name of student in the student template, but note that there's no <code>name</code> field in Student, I'll need to get that from that student's Person document.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to get a mongodb cursor on the client that has the student information as well as selective field from that student's person document?</p>
  
  <p>Also, is there a better or more standard way of achieving what I'm trying to achieve?</p>
  
  <p>Note: I don't want to use redundancy and store the <code>name</code> field on the Student document, so that's not a solution</p>
