It really is though! Tulane's admissions committee has a staff of 5 reviewers so getting one of them to put eyes on your app out of the 17k+ apps they get is pretty significant, all things considered.

Hold earlier today. It seems like everyone on this forum is either holds or interviews... does the hold mean much? does anyone actually get pre II rejections?
Here’s a link to the lawsuit she filed. Please read in full because it’s absolutely wild and Tulane’s behavior is atrocious.
More information. It does kind of speak about their culture...
I’m completely disgusted with Tulane at this point. Clearly the administration does not truly care about black lives like they claim to be. You are in New Orleans and you afraid that a Black PD is going to deter white applicants ??? Well they shouldn’t be doctors if that is their upmost concern ... they don’t deserve to be! They’ve lost me as a student

I have also withdrawn my acceptance here. This level of institutional racism is one of my non-negotiables. Good luck to however gets my spot.

I did not apply here but wanted to come on to say that unless this is your only acceptance, please consider withdrawing your application to show a stance against their absolutely disgusting and unacceptable behavior.
Just want to echo the post above^. Not just to show a stance against their abhorrent behavior, but you genuinely do not want to train at an institution like this.
Read through the claims: "unsupervised procedures", "extended duty hours", "overburdening and deficiencies" "PPE and live saving equipment removed"
They won't care about you or your patients when you're rotating there. Only attend if you don't have other acceptances.

Just emailed and withdrew my application as well. Made sure to mention Dr. Dennar so they know exactly why.
Agreed, it's especially abhorrent given that Tulane is in a majority-Black city. How can they train medical students to care for NOLA residents when Black faculty and trainees are treated this way? I am on the WL here but I sure hope I get the A somewhere else 🙁

Acceptance withdrawn, firmly-worded email sent, and I'm absolutely disgusted. Obviously not everyone is in a position to withdraw an acceptance, but if you are, I urge you to strongly consider.

Im just bewildered at how egregious this is. They took it a step above by removing PPE...that’s actively trying to kill someone. Also withdrawing my A here.

As someone born and raised in NOLA, this situation is absolutely infuriating and heartbreaking. In a city that has been through so much, where communities of color are especially disadvantaged, the Black citizens, physicians, and trainees of New Orleans deserve better. I'm WL at Tulane but grateful to have other acceptances so I will be withdrawing.
I didn’t apply to Tulane but just discovered the Twitter thread and all the evidence Dr. Dennar included, it’s truly heartbreaking. At the same time, I’m so proud of each one of you folks that decided to withdraw their A/WL, it makes me very hopeful about the future of medicine. Kudos to all of you!
i agree. Its very heartbreaking how every school now claims to be actively working against racism but most of them are actually doing the opposite. Very disappointed with Tulane. For anyone withdrawing, please let them know exactly why you are withdrawing.
+1; I was on the fence about withdrawing my interview invite, but this was the sign to let it go. I hope more applicants can do the same.
Good luck to all who interview/ attend Tulane. I can complete understand the internal dilemma with withdrawing your application if this is your only invite or acceptance, but this is down right disgusting and scary to read (especially for black women like myself).

You need to take care of you first but as another commenter said... re: taking away PPE etc.. This is just so unconscionable.

What happened with them taking away PPE?

Last screenshot on the reddit post. Tulane removed PPE from only Dr. Dennar's clinic and asked her to see patients without protection.
