I think all the high ranking generals (i.e. General Tulius), the counts of Cyrodil, and the monarchs of each imperial province are already on the Elder Council, the de facto legislature. I'm not sure if  any important priests or the vassals of each ruler also have seats or not. As for a college of priests that seems like a good idea, I mean Ancient Rome had an organized system of priests with their own specialties (augury, harucpice, soothsaying, etc.) so that should fit in with the Empire. Except that in the Elder Scrolls they could show more organization within each divine's priestly order with all of them culminating with the High Priests of each Divine forming a college beneath the Emperor, a sort of Pontifex Maximus.
