Hands university a list of courses (4)

I believe the answer is:

'a list of courses' is the definition.
(list of food courses)

'hands university' is the wordplay.
'hands' becomes 'men' (synonyms).
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'men'+'u'='MENU'

(Other definitions for menu that I've seen before include "Options available" , "Restaurant fare" , "Card" , "List of food items on offer" , "list of available courses" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
