During this time, Miller earned his Masters Degree and his Ph.D. and then became an administrator with the college.
On October 1, 1985, Miller became the President of Washington Technical College in Washington County, Ohio. During his tenure as President, Miller transformed the college from a one building technical college in rural Washington County in which the college shared space with the local vocational high school into a multi-building community college with its own campus. In 1998, the college built a library that was named in his honor. He retired as President of Washington State Community College on June 30, 2002.
