Model poses for right university worker (9)
I believe the answer is:
professor
'university worker' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'model poses for right' is the wordplay.
'model' is an anagram indicator (letters must be modelled into a new form ).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'poses'+'for'='posesfor'
'posesfor' with letters rearranged gives 'professo'.
'professo'+'r'='PROFESSOR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for professor that I've seen before include "High-ranking academic" , "University lecturer" , "One holds a chair" , "Head of university department" , "Senior university academic" .)
