'high style' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both human attributes as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'recent british monarchs touring university' is the wordplay.
'recent british monarchs' becomes 'grander' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'touring' means one lot of letters goes inside another (touring can mean going round).
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'grander' enclosing 'u' is 'GRANDEUR'.

'in' is the link.
