Abstract
The nursing profession is facing an unprecedented shortage of faculty as baby boomers retire and fewer students select teaching as a career. One innovation, underway since 2001, introduces undergraduate students to the faculty role through a shadowing experience, with the goal of sparking interest in the professorate as a career choice. Student interest in teaching, perceptions of motivators and deterrents, and the implications for new faculty recruitment are presented.
