'harassment not unknown' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'academic staff scandal for oxford?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'academic' could be 'don' (type of academic - especially at Oxbridge) and 'don' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'by' acts as a link.
