Apple Script to make an alias

How would I make an alias to: /Volumes/<foldername> and place it on the desktop?

I currently have:

set doc_path to "/Volumes/StudentShare" as Unicode text
set folder_to_alias to doc_path as alias
tell application "Finder" to make new alias as desktop to folder_to_alias

I will keep trying, but looking for hints

Thanks,
