Lecturer

University of Colorado Administrative Policy Statement (APS) 5060 defines and identifies the use of the lecturer title for contingent teaching faculty, or temporary faculty:

Lecturer is the title given to individuals hired to teach on a course-by-course basis. Lecturers are qualified to teach the particular course or courses for which they have been hired. They may have graduate degrees and/or advanced experience in their profession or field of expertise. Lecturers are employees-at-will. (Appendix A.C.3.)
