Background: A need exists to recruit and retain nursing faculty of differing generations, races/ethnicities, and genders.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine whether generational cohort, race/ethnicity, and gender predicted job satisfaction, life satisfaction, or work-life balance for full-time faculty teaching in prelicensure, baccalaureate nursing programs.

Methods: Faculty (N = 363) from multiple schools of nursing in the United States completed a survey that included demographics, the Job Satisfaction Scale, the Satisfaction with Life Scale, and the Work-Life Balance Self-Assessment.

Results: Significant relationships and differences were noted for nursing faculty. Faculty of color reported lower job and life satisfaction than their White counterparts.

Conclusions: As calls to increase diversity among nursing faculty increase, continued research should focus on differences in the experience of faculty of color.
