Oxford educators (4)

I believe the answer is:

dons

(Other definitions for dons that I've seen before include "University teachers - Mafia bosses" , "British university teachers and Spanish noblemen" , "Puts on -- lecturers" , "Assumes" , "Academics" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
