- the lecturers are both staff at the hospital and faculty at the school? if so, that's probably part of their deal, not extra. -- nm - b. Feb 8, 12:21 1
  - oh and, yah, part of the lure is saying they're faculty. makes them seem up-to-date and shows they're contributors. -- nm - b. Feb 8, 12:24
- I'd imagine they get paid, especially if they're losing money not being at their office. -- nm - Krusty Feb 8, 12:09
