Abstract | This article begins with a script of a typical conversation the authors have with mentees around/after graduation and it illustrates concerns that some mentees have with their transition into a career. Such conversations are appropriate for those entering "emerging adulthood," a season of life ranging from the late teens through the early twenties and a time when emerging adults turn away from their adolescent and teen support networks and toward "people outside of the family." It is a time of life when college faculty can comprise part of this new support network as "mentors"--new, trusted, and safe sources of support. Even for students who are (in years) well into adulthood, the transition into a professional career can involve unique concerns and the need to expand their support network. College faculty has an opportunity to comprise part of this new support network as "mentors"--new, trusted, and safe sources of support. Even for students who are (in years) well into adulthood, the transition into a professional career can involve unique concerns and the need to expand their support network. Mentors can encourage mentees to get out of their own way, and choose a path that may be met with passion and resistance. Mentors are in a position to offer kindness, make themselves available for feedback, find resources that may enhance well-being, and offer advice for navigating contexts riddled with uncertainty and fear.
