Diminutive Miller raises stature of SDSU

South Dakota State University might look a lot different if Peggy Miller had been three inches taller.

“When I was about 16, I wanted to be a stewardess, but they turned me down because I was too short,” Miller shared in an interview much earlier in her career. Miller would stretch both her feet and the truth to declare she was 5-foot-2. Her diminutive stature may have kept her out of the airline industry, but it’s not keeping her out of the South Dakota Hall of Fame.

The former SDSU president will join a group of nine other inductees at ceremonies in Chamberlain Sept. 13-14.
