                   RECOGNIZING DR. DANIEL HARRINGTON

  (Mr. CLINE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CLINE. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Dr. Daniel Harrington, 
the vice dean of Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine in Roanoke, 
Virginia, who is set to retire at the end of this month after more than 
14 years of service.
  From humble beginnings, Dr. Harrington attended West Virginia 
University for both his undergraduate and medical degrees. He then took 
a residency at the University of Virginia, and it was there that he 
learned about Carilion's nascent psychiatry residency program, which 
would give him a chance to develop something that was all his own.
  Dr. Harrington took that opportunity in 1990, and he and his family 
moved to Roanoke.
  In 2006, former Carilion CEO Ed Murphy approached Dr. Harrington with 
the idea of partnering with Virginia Tech and starting a medical 
school.
  Dr. Harrington began traveling the country with then-Virginia Tech 
President Charles Steger and operated a public-private academic 
partnership to make the dream a reality.
  Ever since, the school has been led on multiple fronts by the strong 
leadership of Dr. Harrington.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish Dr. Harrington and his wife, Gil, best wishes for 
a well-deserved retirement.
