Murray Edwards College is a women-only constituent college of the University of Cambridge. It was founded as New Hall in 1954 and unlike many other colleges it was founded without a benefactor and did not bear a benefactor’s name. This situation changed in 2008. Following a donation of £30 million by alumna Ros Edwards (née Smith) and her husband Steve Edwards New Hall was renamed Murray Edwards College honouring the donors and the first President Dame Rosemary Murray.
