A Month in Hiding: Bishop Clark Refuses Requests for Public Comment

Today marks one month since Bishop Matthew H. Clark spoke publicly about the school closings, in a Diocesan press conference and in same-day interviews with select media. Since that time, repeated calls from parents, faculty, community members and media for in-person comment have been refused, with the Bishop relying on prepared statements.

He doesn't have any of the answers we need anyways. Even if he commented it wouldn't make a difference. It would be the same as his impersonal form letters. He believes his best option is to stay quiet until we all settle down. That's what worked for him in the past.
He must be forgetting that we live in an age where communication between the various groups is so easy, exposing how hollow his words are. Your website is a perfect example.
