Being collected from class, men misbehaving (8)
I believe the answer is:
calmness
'being collected from' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'class men misbehaving' is the wordplay.
'misbehaving' indicates an anagram.
'class'+'men'='classmen'
'classmen' with letters rearranged gives 'CALMNESS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for calmness that I've seen before include "Composure, equanimity" , "Serenity" .)
