University dons seen changing result (5)
I believe the answer is:
ensue
'result' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'university dons seen changing' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'dons' is an insertion indicator (don means to wear or put on).
'changing' is an anagram indicator.
'seen' with letters rearranged gives 'ense'.
'u' placed inside 'ense' is 'ENSUE'.
(Other definitions for ensue that I've seen before include "Proceed" , "Come along afterwards" , "Follow later" , "Follow as a consequence" , "Turn out" .)
