Default Multiple notes to a single footnote

Instead of inserting a second footnote insert a cross reference to the first
one, then format the number as superscript.

I am creating a document where I need to asterist several items in my
text to the same footnote. In the text I mention Mary, Jane, Bill,
Mike and want to asterist Mary, Bill and Mike to a single footnote
that might say "Honors students". It seems as if Word wants to give
each person his or her own footnote. Is there a way around this?

Thanks.
