2023-06-22: Changes to address recent inaccurate and dubious updates
{{Connected contributor|User1=Facereiusrei |U1-declared=yes| Employee of subject's current organization
I made fairly significant edits to subject's page to correct inaccurate information that was added in May 2023 about subject institution's U.S. News & World Report rankings and to correct inferred reason for subject's decision to step down, which was speculative and inaccurate. The recent edits implied the subject had stepped down as a direct result of a change in rank, which was incorrect given that the institution was aware of the subject's decision to step down prior to any change in ranking, and given that the drop in rank was due to U.S. News & World Report changing the underlying rankings methodology and not a negative change in institutional metrics, which improved during her tenure – I added references verifying those those improvements and the methodology change. I also removed inaccurate information about subject's parents' careers and cause of death, and dubious speculation about potential mental state that did not appear to be good-faith edits. I also updated or added references for books, awards, academic conferences, and other biographical information that was either missing or out-of-date.
