Popis: Increasing minority representation in nursing is essential to assure culturally competent care in the next century. Academic institutions need to recruit, encourage, and retain minority students and faculty. Students need minority mentors in their academic and clinical environments. Euro-American faculties teaching in predominantly white institutions need to explore effective ways to facilitate aggregate understanding and appreciation of cultural diversity within the profession. The author explains a teaching strategy to increase awareness and sensitivity of graduate nursing students to the role of minority nurses within the culture of nursing. Becoming culturally sensitive is a prerequisite to increasing diversity and culturally competent care.
