"Loyola in Chicago is a horrible program. They have fired 3 residents in the last 6 years and 2 more left willingly. This is the definition of malignant."
This a factoid often attributed to U Chicago, but to correct you, U Chicago has had two residents dismissed over the past few years for what most understand are appropriate reasons. Furthermore, U Chicago is a good program with an excellent chair, perhaps tough, but what NS program isnt? All of the last 9 Loyola NS residents matched at Loyola and are still there. You are unwise, retinadoc (are you ophtho or something?), to be advising future applicants not to apply there.
