Position Title Summary Myra K. Norman 12 Jun 1996 11:08 EST

Thanks to all who wrote me with suggestions about a position title for a
retired professor from anothe institution.  Here is a summary of the
suggestions given:

Research Scientist 8
Research Associate 8
Visiting Scientist or Visiting Senior Scientist - 5

Other suggestions included Visiting Professor, Research Fellow, Adjunct
Researcher, Associate Faculty, Professor Emeritus.

One institution had four classifications which parallel faculty ranks,
using Research Scientist.  Another institution had three levels using
Research Associate.  Another institution used the title Research
__________, filling in the blank with the discipline or research area,
such as Research Virologist.

Thanks again for all your help
