Lecturers and Senior Lecturers are non-tenure-track contingent faculty on term contracts. Their contracts may be written for terms of 1 to 2 years and are renewable (or not). Lecturers and Senior Lecturers are not subject to the 7-year limitation on length of service. Lecturers and Senior Lecturers must be appointed at 0.5 FTE or greater. UNL is no longer making new appointments with the designation "Senior Lecturer," but individuals already so appointed may be renewed with this title. The governing policy guidelines for the faculty title "Lecturer" are found on the website of the Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, at:
