:::::::: Then why did they make that same "mistake"? "Several times during his 12 years as a professor in the Law School, Obama was invited to join the faculty in a full-time tenure-track position, but he declined." Why refer to him as a professor if they think it's incorrect to refer to him as a professor? [[User:Wandering|Wandering]] 19:52, 9 June 2008 (EDT)

::::::::: The University of Chicago's press office is obviously not going to embarrass Obama.  But woe to anyone who claims on his resume that he's a professor when he was just a Senior Lecturer.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:00, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
    
:::: I'll raise the quality of my edits and comments when you'll tell me what's wrong with them. You ''still'' haven't told me how I "deleted information" from the Professor values page. But for the moment, I'd appreciate an explanation of how "You haven't stated precisely what the press office his employer actually said" and "We've all seen what the press office said" reconcile. Am I making some terrible critical reading error here? Did you make a typo? Or is your complaint that the edits did not include a quotation of the press office?

:::::::How is my statement illogical?  When they made the aforementioned quote, they were referring to their own Law school, as a respected institution would not make sweeping claims about other institutions for financial reasons.  Additionally, how were you able to assume from their statement that they implied that "other institutions" "incorrectly" treat them as faculty members.  Please provide me with a source that uses either phrase.  If you can't, then we must interpret the statement as referring to themselves.  Thus, they are directly saying that Obama is considered a professor at their institution.  --Aehlinger
