yale

'new haven ivy' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for yale that I've seen before include "Very important university" , "US Ivy League college" , "Educational institution" , "University in USA" , "US university; lock" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the LA Times.
