He said the new UI President Sally Mason would have to deal with the problem. “Maybe something will hap- pen, and maybe it won’t,” he told the DI on Tuesday. “I don’t know.” Pomerantz said he was disap- pointed with how James Merchant, the dean of the public-health school, handled the Wellmark issue. “[Merchant] didn’t follow through,” Pomerantz said. He was pessimistic about the UI being able to compensate for the withdrawn Wellmark gift. “Do you know where to get $15 million?” he asked. The UI College of Public Health has remained tight- lipped on the matter. Dan McMillan, the communi- cations director for the college, said he was not in a position to comment on the matter. Mean- while, Merchant is out of the country in Romania for the month, but he did attend the Monday meeting, Parrott said.
