Martin also will receive an honorary doctor of letters degree from the university.
For several years before the election of Pope Francis, Martin, who serves as editor-at-large for the Jesuit magazine America, has promoted the Catholic church as open and welcoming — a faith more focused on the Gospel of Jesus Christ than the dogma of its leaders.
