Modifying terms such as "research," "adjunct," "clinical," and "visiting" may be used in conjunction with these academic ranks (e.g., "research professor," "adjunct assistant professor," "clinical associate professor," "visiting professor"); but no appointment for an indefinite term may be made in which a modifying term is used in the academic rank. Furthermore, an appointment in which a modifier is used in the title will not count toward completion of the probationary period, as provided in Article X, Section 1, unless specially recommended by the executive officer of the unit and approved by the dean and by the chancellor or an officer authorized to act for the chancellor. Other academic ranks recognized within the academic staff are: (1) lecturer; (2) instructor; (£3) teaching associate, research associate, and clinical associate; (84) teaching assistant, research assistant, and clinical assistant.

Special classes of positions within the academic staff may be established to meet specialized professional or technical needs, in accordance with Article IX, Section 4a. Section 6.
