Answer: Conley is probably very thorough, and feels a responsibility to know what is being discussed.

Explanation: Thats a metaphoric phrase. When you study a foreign language, you would pay attention to every detail, very thorough, and learn whats being taught. So they are saying they studied whitness the same way.
