Exploring gender inequalities in parenting time:
Some sociological perspectives from Canada

Tom Buchanan came to Mount Royal in 2012 to serve as Chair of the Sociology and Anthropology Department from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He received his PhD from the University of Cincinnati in 2002. Tom's interest in sociology is heavily informed by his previous work with disadvantaged children and families. His work focuses on examining gender inequalities at work, in organizations, and in families. Tom's research also focuses on student adjustment to the university life stage. In this area, Tom explores helicopter parenting as well as the university experience of students experiencing disabilities. In his free time, Tom likes spending time with his family in the Alberta outdoors and building community through music.
