“I am very much encouraged by today’s selection of Dr. King Li to head the new University of Illinois-Carle College of Medicine as its inaugural Dean. I have been a strong supporter of the new College of Medicine in the legislature because this is about the future of community through the fusion of medicine and technology. Not to mention that it will increase the number of good paying jobs available here in central Illinois. The university community has much to be proud of with today’s announcement of Dean Li.”
– State Senator Chapin Rose (R-Mahomet)
