Established through a commitment from the American College of Dentists (ACD) to the American Dental Education Association (ADEA), this scholarship supports a dental educator’s participation in the ADEA Leadership Institute. It honors Dr. Jerome Bright Miller, whose career included leadership roles across dentistry and a commitment to educational and leadership opportunities.
