why Galton was still celebrated. Arthur replied "You’re not the first person to make that point to me; my only defence is that I inherited him". On 19 June 2020, UCL’s President & Provost Professor Michael Arthur announced the "denaming" of spaces and buildings named Francis Galton (and Karl Pearson) with immediate effect.

In October 2002, a plan to merge UCL with Imperial College London was announced by both institutions. The merger was widely seen as a de facto takeover of UCL by Imperial College and was opposed by both staff and UCL Union, the students' union. A vigorous campaign included websites run by both staff (David Colquhoun), and by students (David Conway, then a postgraduate student in the department of Hebrew and Jewish studies). The latter featured an agony uncle column by "Jeremy Bentham" to defend the College. On 18 November 2002 the merger was called off, in no small part because of revelations on those sites. On 1 August 2003, Professor Malcolm Grant took the role of President and Provost (the chief executive of UCL), taking over from Sir Derek Roberts, who had been called out of retirement as a caretaker provost for the college, and had supported the plan for the failed merger. Shortly after Grant's inauguration, UCL began the 'Campaign for UCL' initiative, in 2004. It aimed to raise £300m from alumni and friends.
