resultsCourse()

Example 2: ref in mongoose example

var mongoose = require('mongoose')
  , Schema = mongoose.Schema

var eventSchema = Schema({
    title     : String,
    location  : String,
    startDate : Date,
    endDate   : Date
});

var personSchema = Schema({
    firstname: String,

    dob: Date,
    city: String,
    interests: [interestsSchema],

});

var Event  = mongoose.model('Event', eventSchema);
var Person = mongoose.model('Person', personSchema);
