  1. Congratulations on your appointment, Dr. Miller! I would imagine that you have a lot to contribute to medical research. The need is great for the African American community.

  2. Miller was an absolutely horrible, incompetent joke of an administrator. Her educational standards were piss-poor, she couldn’t communicate with students if her life depended on it, and her primary concern was hiding in her office trying to suck up all the tuition money she could for herself.
    This state, and whatever schools are dumb or desperate enough to hire her, would be far better served if she realized the educational field isn’t her place and left it.
