How to Get Tenure
A really fascinating personal story. One thing that bothered me though:<p>The author's wife quit her job to become a full-time mom. I would guess that the author was only able to have so much professional success because of this. Perhaps you <i>can't</i> get tenure/be really successful while also taking care of a child with disabilities. It just happens to be the case that the author <i>didn't</i> have to take care of a child with disabilities (his wife did), and so his professional career was unaffected.
