college professor
Campus academic teacher
A college professor teaches at a university or college, typically holding an advanced degree in their field.
The term covers various ranks—assistant, associate, and full professor—though people often use it loosely for anyone teaching at the college level.
Professors conduct research, publish scholarship, and advise students in addition to teaching: My college professor wrote the textbook we used in class.
