Convert 4 digit year to 2 digit year
fourdigityear<-c("2003/7/15","2009/6/12")
How should I convert 4-digit year to 2-digit year so I end up having something like "7/15/03","12/6/09".

First make your data into Dates:
fdy <- as.Date(fourdigityear, format='%Y/%m/%d')
Then convert format
as.character(fdy, format = '%m/%d/%y')
# "07/15/03" "06/12/09"
