prettygoodwordrusticate (RUHS-ti-kait) - v., to go live in or send into the countryside; to make rustic; to build as to produce jagged or heavily textured surfaces; (Brit.) to suspend or expel (a student) from a university (esp. Oxbridge).
To become or make rustic, in many senses of that adjective, plus some academic slang. For that last, London counted as country -- anyplace away from the university being less refined, or at least less academic. From Latin rūsticātus, past participle of rūsticārī to live in the country.
