Expected of French to go around university (3)
I believe the answer is:
due
'expected' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'of french to go around university' is the wordplay.
'of french' becomes 'de' ('of' in French).
'to go around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'de' enclosing 'u' is 'DUE'.
(Other definitions for due that I've seen before include "Scheduled to arrive" , "Unpaid or expected" , "Expected; proper" , "Required; proper" , "Escort" .)
