Quotas and ping pong tables?!!!-----Wayne State medical school told it could be placed on accreditation probation

Wayne State medical school told it could be placed on accreditation probation - Crain's Detroit Business:
"...The 1,200-student medical school in Midtown Detroit —  the largest single medical school campus in America — was cited for 12 violations of LCME accreditation standards, including a lack of student diversity and lack of independent and active teaching in the school curriculum, said Roy Wilson, Wayne State’s president.
...Other areas of noncompliance with LCME standards include inadequate numbers of students’ lockers and lack of space in cafeteria, lounge and auditorium areas, Wilson said.
But Sobel said LCME ignored Wayne State’s large gymnasium, meditation room and recreation room for students.
“(LCME) noted one student complained we only had one pingpong table,” he said.
If the Wayne State medical school is placed on LCME probation, it will join an increasing number of schools cited the past several years...."
