Two types of date formats in R dataframe

I have a dataframe with a Date column. The date for some reason is character type and either of the excel number type like “40515” or of the type “01/01/1995”. How can I change all of the them to R format given both formats use different commands to change them.

Why is this date not evaluating correctly in R?

I’ve been troubleshooting a filter that wasn’t working right. Then I noticed that when I try to evaluate my date object, it’s not evaluating properly. I am at a loss – why is my date of November 5, 2019 being evaluated as June 27, 1975?
