College minor coming across loud and clear (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cloudless

'clear' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'college minor coming across loud' is the wordplay.
'college' becomes 'c'.
'minor' becomes 'less' (I've seen this before).
'coming across' is an insertion indicator.
'c'+'less'='cless'
'cless' placed around 'loud' is 'CLOUDLESS'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Another definition for cloudless that I've seen is " (Of sky) clear".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
