Trust me. Professors do not regard adjuncts of any kind to be professors. The adjuncts may call themselves professors but the real professors do not regard them as such in any way. They are adjuncts.
If that's the case, if they disagree with the official word, the U of C Law School faculty needs to get on their administration's case and force them to revise their official statement. Until they do, I'll assume that they do indeed regard adjuncts as described in the official statement.
