College post could be richer post (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rectorship

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'college post' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'could be richer post' is the wordplay.
'could be' indicates an anagram.
'richer'+'post'='richerpost'
'richerpost' anagrammed gives 'RECTORSHIP'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rectorship that I've seen before include "Parson's position" , "church office" , "Clergyman's office" , "Richer post (anag) -- top administrative position in some universities and colleges" .)
