Formed in 1997 as the Coalition of Modern Universities, the name was changed in 2004 to the Campaign for Mainstream Universities. In November 2007, the organisation was rebranded with the present name.[5][6][7] This name was chosen to reflect the fact that the member institutions educate over a million students.[2] MillionPlus is involved in the political debate about the role and contribution of universities to the economy and society, where it is seen as representing the post-1992 "new" universities. As such, it is frequently quoted in the media on higher education topics, such as the Government's green paper on higher education reform,[8][9] reform of the external examination system,[10] and the economic diversity of the student population.[11] The group is chaired by Professor David Phoenix, Vice-Chancellor of London South Bank University. The Chief Executive is Dr Greg Walker.[12] Member institutions{{Location map+|United Kingdom|AlternativeMap=United_Kingdom_relief_location_map.jpg|alt=Map of the UK with location of Million+ universities highlighted|caption=Locations of MillionPlus universities.|float=right|width=300|places={{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=56.46|long=-2.97|position=bottom|label=Abertay }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=52.21|long=0.12|position=top|label=Anglia Ruskin }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=51.51|long=-0.13|position=top|label=London |mark=City locator 11.svg|marksize=12}}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=51.38|long=-2.44|position=top|label=Bath Spa }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=51.88|long=-0.41|position=right|label=Bedfordshire }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=53.81|long=-1.55|position=top|label=Leeds Trinity }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=53.58|long=-2.43|position=right|label=Bolton }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=51.28|long=1.09|position=top|label=Canterbury Christ Church }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=50.91|long=-1.40|position=right|label=Southampton Solent }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=54.89|long=-2.94|position=bottom|label=Cumbria }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=57.47|long=-4.23|position=top|label=Highlands and Islands }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=54.89|long=-1.48|position=bottom|label=Sunderland }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=55.95|long=-3.19|position=top|label=Edinburgh Napier }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=55.85|long=-4.40|position=left|label=Glasgow Caledonian }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=55.85|long=-4.37|position=bottom|label=West of Scotland }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|lat=53.00|long=-2.11|position=top|label=Staffordshire }}{{Location map~|United Kingdom|mark=TransparentPlaceholder.png|marksize=1|lat=51|long=-11|label=London: East London London Metropolitan London South Bank Middlesex West London |position=right}} }}
