• Mon, 15:39: In today's @chronicle piece I talk about losing my ability to speak at a faculty meeting, too tired from colicky baby & toddler. (1 of 3).
• Mon, 15:39: I want you to imagine how that would go over had a female faculty member lost her coherence, then blamed childcare duties. (2 of 3)
• Mon, 15:40: For me, the response seems to have been, "Awww, what a good father." And this is a good response. But it's definitely gendered. #workingdad

• Mon, 23:30: I've been thinking about commencement speakers, since I failed to write an op-ed about it when it was timely.
• Mon, 23:31: It seems to me that a commencement speaker is a different kind of thing than just a speaker on campus. It becomes a symbol of your degree.
• Mon, 23:32: 3) These rituals matter. We tell students that the pomp, the dress, the music, and processions, and the speeches matter. And they do.

• Mon, 23:32: 4) So if a student looks at their commencement speaker and say, "this person is immoral," are we really to critique them for protesting?
• Mon, 23:33: 5) Now that said, immorality is subjective. It's a complicated slope, and it's not that every protest merits compliance from admin.
• Mon, 23:34: 6) I've been very troubled when controversial speakers have not been able to speak at all on a campus. That is a closing of minds.
• Mon, 23:34: 7) But for commencement? Student activism is good. We want young people engaged. The snarky condemnations are really irritating me.
• Mon, 23:35: RT @SydneyUniPress: An Academic Working Dad by @lollardfish http://t.co/l1dFjSzcFt via @chronicle
• Mon, 23:36: 8) To sum up: If we say these rituals matter, then we cannot be surprised when students take the symbols seriously. #DiplomaByInstagram
• Mon, 23:38: Is this what I said? MT @ProfessorIsIn: ♫I enjoy being a man!♫ Says the author of this piece on academic dads. http://t.co/7ywugTLpjD
• Mon, 23:39: Or this? MT @adam_m_jcbs: Extended version: I enjoy being a man! I've also written for several national outlets. And oh yea, sexism's bad.
• Mon, 23:39: Because I seriously like @ProfessorIsIn and her work. I think she does a great job levelling the benefits of privilege and luck.
• Mon, 23:40: So just being mocked, rather than engaged, is disappointing. Not that anyone is required to engage with me or anyone if they'd rather mock.

• Tue, 00:08: Hmm, I think I am breaking twitter etiquette. If people want to mock or insult me but don't mention me directly, I should stay out of it.

• Tue, 00:11: Particularly for people who, other than being on twitter, not public persons. Do rules change with other journalists? What do you think?
