Two Vanderbilt University Women Stepping Down From Leadership Roles

Bonnie Miller, senior associate dean for health sciences education at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and executive vice-president for educational affairs at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, has announced her retirement from these leadership roles, effective July 1, 2019. She will remain on the faculty to help with special projects and medical student activities as well as serve as an advisor for students and student organizations. She has been a faculty member at Vanderbilt since 1987. Dr. Miller holds a bachelor’s degree in biology from Colorado College and a medical degree from the University of Oklahoma.

Mona Frederick, executive director of the Robert Penn Warren Center for the Humanities at Vanderbilt University, has announced that she will retire in June 2019. She has served as director of the center since its founding in 1988. During her tenure, she led the university’s efforts to build a digital archive of Robert Penn Warren’s audio recordings featuring 1960s U.S. civil rights activists. “I have been fortunate indeed to work with incredible colleagues who have been instrumental to the success of the Warren Center,” Frederick said. “I am proud of the strong foundation for the humanities at Vanderbilt that the Warren Center has contributed to over the years.” She holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill.
