heard 2 residents quit from umdnj - this year.

That's not true. Two PGY3 positions did open up this year but neither individual quit. One resident transferred to the University of Chicago (a fine program indeed) because of family commitments. The other was not retained for the coming year for various reasons. I can assure you that we have a fine program and a great group of guys (and girls!). Neither instance should by any means reflect badly on the program.
