...understandable that some students have been frightened or upset by COCA's recent tactics. But their fear and anger should not be ultimately directed at COCA.

Martin cared about the simple people; he would spend his weekends offering Mass and teaching first aid in the impoverished countryside. I found him a reliable source of information, especially because he oversaw the country's least biased public-opinion polls. A few years ago, a colleague asked Martin if there was any hope...
