“…Evaluation of a nursing student mentorship program at the University of Illinois with shared resources, weekly sessions, and career development tools for underrepresented minorities revealed that the program complemented self-development and course work, provided a safe place for reflection and sharing professional development, and delivered career guidance (Matthews et al, 2022). A recent study by Mentes and Phillips (2021) exploring the views of ethnic minority nursing students in a prelicensure program identified mentoring as a strategy for gaining support. Participants reported examples of their mentors' support, including securing alternative funding sources, pushing them to submit their applications, keeping them on track, providing necessary information, and helping them meet their deadlines (Mentes & Phillips, 2021).…”

This article addresses low retention and graduation rates among historically marginalized students in nursing programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Mentoring is a proven success strategy to support systems for historically marginalized students, helping them navigate challenges, improving academic outcomes, and increasing the diversity of the nursing workforce. The article highlights the mentoring initiative of AARP's Center for Health Equity through Nursing and the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action, an initiative of AARP Foundation, AARP, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the outcomes of this collaboration. The paper details the implementation of a mentoring initiative to enhance graduation rates and National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) success among historically marginalized students and emphasizes collaboration among institutions and organizations, as well as strategies for funding, mentor recruitment, and NCLEX preparation. Recommendations include promoting robust mentoring programs, preparing mentors, and conducting further research on the effects of mentoring on student outcomes in HBCUs.

“…They start to see white nurses are seen as authoritative figures. They are less likely to be encouraged and supported when it comes to pursuing doctoral degrees compared to their white counterparts (Barbee, 1993; Cooke et al, 2021; Mentes & Phillips, 2021; Phillips et al, 2022). Doctoral students have challenges as well as they e xperience racism throughout their programme.…”

Drawing from a keynote panel held at the hybrid 25th International Philosophy of Nursing Conference, this discussion paper examines the question of epistemic silence in nursing from five different perspectives. Contributors include US‐based scholar Claire Valderama‐Wallace, who meditated on ecosystems of settler colonial logics of nursing; American scholar Lucinda Canty discussed the epistemic silencing of nurses of colour; Canadian scholar Amelie Perron interrogated the use of disobedience and parrhesia in and for nursing; Canada‐based scholar Ismalia De Sousa considered what nursing protects in its silences; and Australian scholar Janice Gullick spoke to trans invisibility in nursing.
