Apt name for a college official (4)

I believe the answer is:

dean

(Other definitions for dean that I've seen before include "Resident fellow" , "Clergyman; narrow valley" , "One is in charge of a university department" , "Church or college dignitary" , "Glos. forest; Dixie ---, Everton hero" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
