Mike (mostly he goes by Dr. C.) has taught physics at YSU for the last 21 years. He and his wife Mary K Cohan (social worker/educator) live nearby and have delighted in raising their three kids in this area, though they are all over the USA now. Dr. C lives for eliciting in his younger colleagues (students) and experiencing for himself those "ah ha!" moments of understanding, whether it be in some topic in theoretical physics or a matter of the faith. To witness to and be, at least in some small way, a part of their struggle, their growth and their triumph as adult disciples is the greatest personal joy he has outside of his family and research work, all three of which have become life-as-prayer for him.
