Should we make some reference to New Hall's nickname of "Virgin Megastores"?
I've never heard of that nick-name - only the dome being called "The Breast". On another note, the university had more female than male students in the year 2004 as far as I know, so the claim that there are substantially more men than women may not hold true. -- Wee Jimmy 02:12, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
We have a new name!!!!! Murray Edwards College, hot off the press... President just announced it this afternoon. Will add a reference once they got some press releases Selkie upsilon ( talk) 16:19, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
They will have the new website up tomorrow Selkie upsilon ( talk) 17:56, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Is the Murray Edwards of the name the same person as N. Murray Edwards? That article does say he has a son. Percy Snoodle ( talk) 18:01, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
My editorial colleague Shakehandsman ( talk · contribs) would like the Background section to say "...thus leaving Cambridge University as the only UK institution with colleges discriminating on the grounds of gender." S/he cites this 2006 news story in support. I've reverted this—here's why:

This is still awaiting confirmation from the Privy Council.-- Developmentmec ( talk) 09:59, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
From what I understand the name change has now been approved by Privy Council. http://www.murrayedwards.cam.ac.uk/about/news/murrayedwardsnews/view/444 Selkie upsilon ( talk) 07:20, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
A supplemental charter was published adopting the new name - not sure of the date. http://www.murrayedwards.cam.ac.uk/about/newhallpublicationscheme/publicationscheme/who/statutes 131.111.16.191 ( talk) 17:13, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

New Hall College, Cambridge → Murray Edwards College, Cambridge — This institution has never been called "New Hall College", though it was until recently known as "New Hall". It is now known in pretty much all day-to-day contexts as "Murray Edwards College" (including in all the college and university's literature). There are still some legal technicalities being sorted out regarding the name change, but these are adequately covered in the article. I'd therefore recommend that the article title be change to "Murray Edwards College". (But if anyone objects to that, it should at least be changed to "New Hall" rather than "New Hall College".)

The official name of the college, at the moment, as seen on its website at http://www.murrayedwards.cam.ac.uk/about/history/briefhistory/ is "Murray Edwards College founded as New Hall" This version of the name, the result of considerable head scratching and consultation with alumnae, is the version that is presently being considered by the Privy Council. At no time, ever, was the college referred to as New Hall College (see, for example, "New Hall 1954-1972, the Making of a College" by the first President, Rosemary Murray (published in 1980 by Cambridge University Library for the college). Annmaltmanphd ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:49, 16 July 2010 (UTC).
These women were blanked out in the list of alumnae: if there is evidence of notability any of them could be included.
