abstract = "Scant attention has been paid to the influence of professors on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students{\textquoteright} learning and lives at the tertiary level. To fill this void, this chapter examines the influence of professors on students{\textquoteright} entering and remaining in the STEM disciplines and pursuing STEM careers within the context of six funded STEM grants in the southern United States. We examine professor-student interactions using the students{\textquoteright} storied experiences as the fodder for our narrative inquiry. We present narrative exemplars from which the following themes emerged: (1) agency as a student and agency as a human being, (2) development of students{\textquoteright} multilayered identities, and (3) professors{\textquoteright} engagement of themselves in their interactions with students. A discussion of learner-centeredness and professors{\textquoteright} professional development in higher education concludes this study of professors{\textquoteright} influence on students{\textquoteright} learning and intended careers.",
