For your consideration:
So I just graduated from a hell of a toxic medical school where the abuses of power are just pervasive. I mean, it's hard to find words adequate to describe the bs that went down and continues to go down at that institution. Many know about it and have tried to stand up to it, but if they are a) faculty - they disappear due to nonrenewal of contracts or other hasty unplanned departures without explanations or b) students - they are threatened, told they aren't competitive and should withdraw, even manipulated from a finaid perspective until they, knowing no better, give in and go!
I swallowed my rage against the machine until graduation. Does anyone know of cases in which filing a complaint with the lcme against a medical school after graduation ended up affecting a resident's career prospects or work environment? Medicine is a small, terrible little world, and I don't want to screw myself.
Thanks.
