b) when there is reasonable probability of establishing a chair by division of department within five years, or

4) Senior Instructor to be appointed on strength of advanced study, successful experience , or both. The distinction between this and the preceding grade is simply that between College and preparatory instruction.
5) Junior Instructor - a grade for the raw recruit, or for probation when a knowledge of candidate may not justify any higher appointment.
