Connecticut collegian (3)
I believe the answer is:
eli
'connecticut collegian' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for eli that I've seen before include "OT high priest" , "Priest at Shiloh (Samuel)" , "High priest in the Book of Samuel" , "Priest, teacher of Samuel" , "Highest priest at Shiloh" .)
