While we are all familiar with the importance of mentoring programs as a tool to broaden access to STEM, we may overlook the potential power within our daily interactions with students. Whether in class, office hours, or the research lab, we can have a major impact on students through the comments we make, our actions, and how we organize our activities. Research demonstrates the power of these critical moments. I offer practical recommendations to be more intentional about the time and energy you are already investing, and in doing so, improve the power of your impact on students.
