Walther Memorial and Loretto run full time ERs with salaried and rotating doctors.

Catholic Schools Have No Quota
The Archdiocese of Chicago denies any racial quota system in Catholic schools though aims for racial balance in high schools are discussed. Open enrollment aims to mix students across parochial schools, while elementary schools remain parish based. Cardinal Cody’s quoted quota remark was denied as a misunderstanding. Over 8,000 non Catholics attend Catholic schools, including many Negro students.
