The Magee campus gained its name from Martha Magee, who bequeathed a sum of money in the mid-1800sUlster University should have consulted with staff and the community before rebranding its Magee campus as "Derry~Londonderry", a union has said.
But in recent months "Derry~Londonderry", using a tilde symbol, has appeared more frequently in university communications to refer to the Magee campus.In June, a senior official at the university sent staff an internal email with the subject line: "Derry~Londonderry".
