UI’s Killeen, Wilson Weigh In On Impasse To Senators
U of I President Timothy Killeen and Interim Urbana Chancellor Barbara Wilson told an appropriations committee that some high-profile faculty are looking to leave the university due to the budget stalemate. "I really fear for the brain drain right now," Wilson said. Meanwhile, Killeen says the U of I won't be able to cover the full cost of students' MAP grants should the impasse continue this fall.
