Merger proposal

Reason to merge:

Student Rags includes the same topic as this article, sometimes with more detail. There is no valid reason to have two articles that describe the same thing. Truthanado (talk) 15:33, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply

Seems fair enough to me. Stefanjcarney 15:11, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed per

The merger has been completed. Truthanado (talk) 00:10, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bentham

I've removed all reference to Bentham being one of the 'founders' of UCL (he wasn't). I've also deleted the section which claims that KCL students used Bentham's mummified head as a football - this is another of the big Bentham myths. The head is extremely fragile - hairs fall out of it whenever it's moved even slightly, and it would disintegrate following any kind of impact.

Hope that's all okay!
