In 2019, he was inducted into the Loyal Sons and Daughters of Rutgers in recognition of the contributions he has made to his alma mater.

Miller hopes to continue sharing his knowledge with his students and preparing them for careers after they graduate. He is also working on adapting the department to currriculum to an ever-changing journalism and media environment. Along these lines, he is working to expand what the department offers to its students and increasing outreach throughout the university and to the community at large.
