      ab: Honors programs and courses can be characterized by large impersonal classes with differences in assignments and evaluation criteria compared to non-honors courses. This article begins to tell the story of a nursing honors program in which expert re-searchers and educators mentor highly motivated students, introducing them to nursing research and to faculty roles. The one-on-one relationships developed during the two-semester program encourage student growth and academic and career success. Mentored students are more confident in their ability to participate in clinical research and pursue advanced education.
