 We bid farewell to 2011 thanking our loyal readers for spending time with Loyola Student Dispatch. Our modest student-produced news service had nearly 95,000 unique visits for the year, as we tried to provide readers with up-to-the-minute news about Loyola University Chicago and its surrounding neighborhoods. There was a good deal of bad news, but also some uplifting good news.Here were the five most viewed stories of the year: |

Loyola Student Dispatch was the first news outlet to break stories on a group of teenagers stealing goods from stores on Michigan Avenue, and the Chicago Tribune praised LSD for its coverage.
