Dr. Pam Johnson, Cedarville’s Dean of Undergraduate Studies, can lay claim to many accomplishments. She coached women’s tennis for 30 years and has been named to multiple athletic halls of fame. Her name, along with that of Dr. Murray Murdoch, Distinguished Professor of History and former men’s tennis coach, graces the Cedarville tennis complex. She was instrumental in starting Cedarville's academic support services. But when asked to name her greatest achievement, she recalls delivering a diploma to a student’s workplace, or helping a student have an “aha” moment. For all of her accomplishments, Dr. Johnson first and foremost loves helping students solve the puzzles of learning.

Dr. Johnson met her husband, Dr. Cliff Johnson, Cedarville’s Academic Vice President for Academics from 1964 to 1987, while they both served at the University. They were married for 24 years, until his homegoing to the Lord in 2018.
