An MD Program and Not One Qualified Faculty Member

I am still trying to figure out how any of the USD SOM faculty are qualified to "teach" as professors in a Medical School, when none of the faculty have specific training in human medicine. Can someone clarify the faculty and their supposed qualifications????

Clearly, based on research efforts and the fact that none of the faculty have published, I begin to wonder how these people wake up in the morning and claim that they are academics. Bunger, you are certainly not qualified.

As a physician, we are required to maintain a certain number of CME credits and to maintain a clinical license ... this is not true of a PhD. The only litmus test for a PhD faculty member is their continued publication record for developments based on novel research. Based on the publication track record of the USD SOM, none of the faculty are qualified to teach. Maybe, it is time to clean house of this over-bloated University. With salaries issued (see below posts) these people should be publishing like crazy.

Better yet, any faculty wanting to defend their training are welcome to post.
