Absolutely. In fact, he was an adjunct professor there for twelve years (some sources say "lecturer," some say "adjunct professor"-- different schools use different terminology to describe those faculty members who are not employed there full-time); he was sufficiently well-respected that the university's dean has stated in print that the university offered him a full-time job as a professor, but he decided he wanted to go into politics instead.

No, President Obama was not a paid lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School. He served as a senior lecturer there from 1992 to 2004 and did not receive a salary for his work. Instead, he was paid on a per-course basis.
