Crossword Genius

Martin is college head (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dean

I believe this is a double definition.

'martin' is the first definition.
(Dean Martin)

'college head' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for dean that I've seen before include "Torvill's ice dancing partner" , "Small valley - cathedral dignitary" , "One is in charge of a university department" , "Cathedral chapter head" , "College official" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
