Should I use whom in place of any of these who's?
Hello,
Should I use whom anywhere in the sentence below?
"The other students who attend Smith Flat are all people who I trust, people who in one way or another have been a positive influence in my life."
If not, how would you write it so that it is used (just to help me understand why it's used.
Thank you for any help you can provide!
