According to research conducted by the New York Times and published on July 30, 2008, Obama is described as having taught three courses. These included a Voting Rights class which, "traced the evolution of election law, from the disenfranchisement of blacks to contemporary debates over districting and campaign finance...he taught districting as a racially fraught study in how power is secured." He also taught a class on Due Process and Equal Protection and, "His most original course, a historical and political seminar as much as a legal one, was on racism and law."

Obama was a guest lecturer at the University of Chicago, He was never a professor of law at any college or university. There is a big difference between being a professor and a guest lecturer. He never taught constitutional law anywhere.
