(slang) An inmate of a prison.
Collegian carries two distinct meanings. In standard usage it refers to a student or former student of a college or university — someone associated with academic collegiate life. In British slang it also has a historical sense as a euphemism for an inmate of a debtors' prison, where the ironic joke likens imprisonment to attending an educational institution. The standard sense is far more common; the slang sense is archaic and encountered mainly in 19th-century literature and social history.
