See university revolutionary as disreputable (6)
I believe the answer is:
louche
'disreputable' is the definition.
('louche' can be similar in meaning to 'disreputable')
'see university revolutionary' is the wordplay.
'see' becomes 'lo' (archaic word meaning 'look!').
'university' becomes 'u'.
'revolutionary' becomes 'che' (Che Guevara the Marxist revolutionary**).
'lo'+'u'+'che'='LOUCHE'
'as' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for louche that I've seen before include "Of questionable taste or morality" , "Questionable or shady, from French" , "Rakishly disreputable" , "Seedy" , "Disreputable in a rakish sort of way" .)
