Cat[^]
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

i love nononono cat.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Here we go, again:
Eat? no, education... lose the awardee, Luke (9)
@musefan with the correct answer.
Solution:
eat - chew
education - baccalaureate
lose the awardee - baccalaureate
is Chewbacca

No, sorry
How did you arrive at that - there may be a clue there!

education = undergraduate
awardee = graduate as in grad student.
brings it to under
Eat? no anagram to ate.
Doesn't fit completely i.e. missing the other 'r'.
Not sure how Luke gets in there perhaps a hint for education as light?
|
|
|
|
|
Chewbacca? (as in a sidekick in the Star Wars universe, hinted at via "Luke" Skywalker)
Chew as in eat, and the rest something to do with bachelor degree perhaps, not sure.

Don't know, edited my semi explanation in my answer post...

Well done, that seems like a good shout, I've never heard the term before

Is the right answer - but solution, please?

I have edited in my best attempt at solution, feel free to fill in the gaps!

If you leave the awardee - or laureate - from baccalaureate, you are left with bacca.

I think that it's a really good clue for the most part, but again your definition part "Luke" is very misleading.
You should try to include a more synonymous definition that links more directly to Chewbacca...
So for example, if you wanted an easy clue:
Eat? no, education... lose the awardee, Wookiee (9)
Or a more difficult one:
Eat? no, education... lose the awardee, co-pilot (9)
EDIT: However, I am far from an expert, and ultimately I did get the correct answer, so...

How is "Luke" misleading? He is part of the Star Wars universe, right?

As per my understanding, a cryptic clue should contain a definition of the answer. Such as indicated here[^]:
Extract: Every cryptic clue includes a straight definition of the answer, just like in a ‘regular’ crossword. It’s astonishing, but true!
"Luke" doesn't really fit with that rule, it's just the name of a character that knows Chewbacca. Does that make sense?

OK

Chewbacca is not Luke's sidekick, so one has to (potentially) consider every other character in Star Wars. Your definition part needs to point a bit more towards the answer. Look at some of the other clues and you should get the idea.
