@glantzings @MassTLC Thanks @glantzings & @genderavengerma for your leadership shining a spotlight on gender equity. @MassTLC is committed to building an inclusive tech ecosystem in MA. We work on D&I from tech talent pipeline thru employee experience to the board of directors. But more to be done.

Our #AvengersOfTheWeek @SalemStatePres John Keenan, @CommCorp_MA President & CEO @JDLaRock and @ONeillandAssoc SVP Hugh Drummond were up to the challenge and signed the @GenderAvenger pledge. Have you? #genderavenger https://t.co/mQbZG5Vfv3

@TuftsObserver, check this out! Despite progressive campus politics, @TuftsUniversity is struggling to hit gender equality benchmarks in administrative leadership. Students and alumni can take action at https://t.co/JcEJApT7ga for #genderparitynow

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

Calling all Jumbos, past and present! @TuftsUniversity has urgent work to do diversifying leadership, now ranked 87th among 93 MA colleges for women in leadership. Visit https://t.co/IZUr6kvoJC to tell administrators that needs to change.

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

For a @TuftsAlumni's perspective, read @beclarke's call for immediate action: "We know there are biases in [@TuftsUniversity's] processes because almost every other institution in Massachusetts does it better." https://t.co/CEM36zPEVr

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

"We are unrelenting, we are unforgiving, and there is no excuse." - @glantzings #genderparitynow https://t.co/B5jar8u10g

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

Turning to the @GenderAvenger toolkit, @glantzings shares "Just asking the question 'Will there be women on stage with me?' informs events and improves equity." Men, take the pledge! #qenderequitynow https://t.co/RIRorVidGu

On building gender and racial diversity across sectors, "It's not identity politics, it's social justice." - Andrea Silbert, @EosFoundation President #genderparitynow

Change will come from the bottom. You all have the power to ask. -- Andrea Silbert @EosFoundation #genderparitynow #womenspowergap

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

Reflecting on the @womenspowergap report, Bookman "was disappointed that there are many institutions in the Commonwealth doing virtually nothing about this problem." #genderparitynow #whatstheplan @CWPPP_UMB

[CWPPP @CWPPP_UMB]

Eos President Andrea Silbert agrees with CWPPP Director Ann Bookman that there is “no silver bullet” to addressing lack of gender and parity in higher ed leadership. @womenspowergap #genderparitynow

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

Dr. Jean King of @WPI takes on the intersection of race and gender: “Women of color are isolated" in academic and professional settings. "Women in the room, look around for women of color and form communities. Don’t let them be isolated." #genderparitynow

[womenspowergap @womenspowergap]

@LeePelton: We often privilege credentials over talent. We need to have a commitment to equity and diversity. #womenspowergap #genderparitynow @EmersonCollege

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

Bookman urges us to account for “stereotypes that impact behaviors in ways that are unconscious.” This bias contributes to keeping women and minorities "on the short list but out of top positions." #genderparitynow @CWPPP_UMB

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

"The glass ceiling effect was a question in the 90s: does it exist?" Ann Bookman, Director of @CWPPP_UMB, reflects. "The answer is yes, it exists and it's pervasive." #genderparitynow #whatstheplan

[Marta T. Rosa, M.Ed. @mtrconsulting57]

Time for term limits?

[Marta T. Rosa, M.Ed. @mtrconsulting57]

It’s a power structure issue-men are staying in the presidency a long time in higher ed—Dr Lee Pelton—need equity as part of the strategy. ⁦@womenspowergap⁩ ⁦@statehousenews⁩ ⁦@genderavengerma⁩ #genderparitynow

[GenderAvenger MA @genderavengerma]

"We need to look beyond the borders of Massachusetts for diverse talent," says Dr. Carlos Santiago, Commissioner of Higher Ed. "Candidates should know they'll be treated equitably in the process." #genderparitynow #whatstheplan
