Question: Westminster College's site at Harcourt Hill was leased by the Methodist Church to a univeristy renamed in 1992 to honor what former principal?
Context: Methodist theologians include those theologians affiliated with any of the Methodist denominational churches such as The United Methodist Church, independent Methodists, or churches affiliated with the Holiness Movement including the Church of the Nazarene, the Free Methodist Church, the Wesleyan Methodist Church (America), the Wesleyan Methodist Church (Great Britain), the Pilgrim Holiness Church, and the Wesleyan Church, as well as other church organizations. Methodist views on the ordination of women in the rite of holy orders are diverse.  Some Methodist denominations practice the ordination of women, such as in the United Methodist Church (UMC), in which the ordination of women has occurred since its creation in 1968, as well as in the Free Methodist Church (FMC), which ordained its first woman elder in 1911, in the Methodist Church of Great Britain, which ordained its first female deacon in 1890 and ordained its first female elders (that is, presbyters) in 1974, and in the Bible Methodist Connection of Churches.  Other Methodist denominations do not ordain women, such as the Southern Methodist Church (SMC), Evangelical Methodist Church of America, Fundamental Methodist Conference, and Primitive Methodist Church (PMC), the latter of which does not does not ordain women as elders nor does it license them as pastors or local preachers; the PMC does, however, consecrate women as deaconesses.  Independent Methodist parishes that are registered with the Association of Independent Methodists do not permit the ordination of women to holy orders. Oxford Brookes University is a public university in Oxford, England.  It can trace its origins to 1865 when the former Oxford School of Art was established.

Suncreek United Methodist Church is a United Methodist Church in Allen, Texas, part of the North Texas Conference of the UMC.  In June of 1995, Rev. Burt Palmer was appointed to begin a new United Methodist Church in Allen.  By September of that year, three families were gathering to worship at the parsonage.  The group grew, and by the end of that year, Sunday morning worship moved to Green Elementary School.  Then, on September 22, 1996, Suncreek was officially constituted as a United Methodist Church.  In early 1999, the church began to build on property at Suncreek and McDermott Drives.   This involved renovating a home that was on the site and adding additional rooms for a Sanctuary and classes.   In September 1999, the church left Green Elementary and began meeting in the new buildings.  Rev. Kathleen Baskin-Ball was appointed Senior Pastor of Suncreek in June 2001.  The following May, the church gathered for a Sunday morning worship service under a large tent to kickoff a capital campaign that would purchase land, renovate the existing building, erect a new building and Sanctuary, and add parking.  One year later, the church broke ground on this phase of its development.  The new building was completed in April 2004 and consecrated by Bishop William B. Oden on May 23, 2004.  In early 2007, Rev. Kathleen Baskin-Ball was diagnosed with cancer.  Despite the challenges of her illness and treatment, she continued to lead, serve and love the congregation until her death on December 2, 2008.  One of Kathleen’s favorite ministerial duties was performing baptisms.   We desire to remember her with the beautiful Garden in our esplanade just south of the breezeway connecting the sanctuary with the children’s area.  Rev. Dr. Thomas O. Palmer was appointed as Senior Pastor in June, 2009 and served until June, 2013.   He now serves as Senior Pastor of Coppell United Methodist Church.  Rev. Dr. Keith Payne Boone was appointed as Senior Pastor in June, 2013 and served until June, 2016.  He now serves as Senior Pastor of University Park United Methodist Church in Dallas.  Rev.

After being ordained in 1895, he served in a number of towns in Scotland and England, notably Renfield Church, Glasgow, and Egremont, Wallasey, before being appointed, in 1914, to the Chair of Church History at Westminster College, Cambridge.  During the period leading up to the Scottish Church Crisis (1900–1905), he worked closely with Principal Rainy, his former professor at New College, Edinburgh, in his efforts to secure the union of the Free and the United Presbyterian Churches.  In the post World War I period, he played a significant role in the area of inter-Church relations, particularly during the Lambeth Conversations and the Revised Prayer Book controversy.  (See below) As an author, two of his books, "The Fact of Christ (1900") and "The Life of Principle Rainy (1909)" earned widespread acclaim.  In 1928, Carnegie Simpson was elected Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of England.  He retired from Westminster College in 1937. What became Westminster College began in 1888 in Seven Points, Texas, United States, northeast of McKinney, Texas, where classes were first held in a building that once housed Seven Points College.  Founded by J. M. Harder, the school was purchased five years later by I. P. Rosser.  In 1895, he sold it to the Methodist Protestant Church and the school was named Westminster College and served as a preparatory school for ministers.  Shortly thereafter, the town of Seven Points changed its name to that of the school.  In 1902, Westminster outgrew the facilities and the college moved to Tehuacana, Texas and continued as a junior college. Finis Alonzo Crutchfield, Jr. ((1916--) 22, 1916 – (1987--) 21, 1987 ) was a noted American clergyman and a bishop in the United Methodist Church.  He began his pastoral career after graduating from Duke University Divinity School in 1940.  His first assignment was First United Methodist Church in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  He remained there until he was sent to Norman, Oklahoma, in 1950.  Ten years later he became senior pastor at Boston Avenue Methodist Church in Tulsa.  He was credited with bringing Oral Roberts into the Methodist Church (although Roberts later left) and served as a negotiator in the 1968 merger of the Methodist Church with the Evangelical United Brethren Church. First Methodist Episcopal Church is a historic Methodist church building at 120 Cleveland Ave., SW in Canton, Ohio.  Renamed Church of the Savior United Methodist in 1968.  Then in 2014, after its congregation was merged with Saint Paul's United Methodist Church, it was renamed Crossroads United Methodist Church. Connexionalism, or connectionalism, is the theological understanding and foundation of Methodist church governance ("ecclesiastical polity"), as practised in the Methodist Church of Great Britain, the Methodist Church in Ireland, the American United Methodist Church, African Methodist Episcopal Church, African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Christian Methodist Episcopal Church and many of the countries where Methodism was established by missionaries sent out from these Churches.  In the American church, where bishops provide church leadership, connexionalism is a variety of episcopal polity; however, in some countries the title of bishop may be used without any change in the Connexional polity.  In world Methodism, a given Connexion is usually autonomous. Westminster College was a teacher training college and college of higher education in England.  The college was founded in London in 1851 as a training institute for teachers for Wesleyan Methodist schools, but moved to Oxford in 1959.  Before the move, it was part of the London Institute for Education.  From 1959 to 1981, its qualifications were awarded by Oxford University.  From 1981 to 1992, its qualifications were awarded by the CNAA.  From 1993 to 2000, its courses were validated by the Oxford University again.  In 2000, financial pressures caused the college to close.  The Methodist Church subsequently leased the college's site at Harcourt Hill to Oxford Brookes University and it became the home of that university's Westminster Institute of Education.
