Etymology
Term-trotter is like globe-trotter. The trotter part comes from trot, meaning 'to move quickly', and term means 'a fixed period', like a school term. So a term-trotter is someone who moves from place to place between terms, which is why it means a person who travels often for academic or work reasons.
