Nice as it is to be mentioned, neither I nor the other two are notable! Mtpt 18:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inconsistency

"The Hall ... took on its official name "Aula Sancti Benedicti" ("St. Benet's Hall") in 1918. Prior to this date, Permenent Private Halls of the University of Oxford took their name from their Master, and the Hall was known successively as Hunter-Blair, Parker, and McCann Hall."

and later:

"St. Benet's has had nine Masters since it was established in 1897:

• Abbot Oswald Hunter Blair OSB (1898–1909)
• Father Anselm Parker OSB (1909–1920)
• Father Justin McCann OSB (1920–1947)"

If Father Justin McCann took over as master in 1920, the hall cannot have been named after him as master before it became St Benet's Hall in 1918. Can anyone confirm which of these is the case? TSP 13:42, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
