She lied.!
Most of the DEI folks do that very thing...
You’d have to be profoundly stupid to believe your resume won’t eventually be checked, especially something as blatant as falsely claiming you have a college degree.
The only ones able to get away with lying about their past achievements are politicians.
It’s actually fraud that can lead to hundreds of thousands of misbegotten government funds in a few years.
Should be treated like other similar fraud.
I imagine this actually happens a lot but few are caught or is verification even attempted. Of course most degrees nowadays aren’t indicative of accomplishment at all.
There is no reason to lie about a degree. If your work product is good enough, let that substitute.
”Substandard” probably describes most degrees now.
I have a BA from a college that no longer exists......sort of.
FTU, Florida Technological University was renamed University of Central Florida a few years after I graduated. My diploma says FTU (1975). It took the dimwits in the state system about 15 years to realize that naming a liberal arts college “Florida Technological University” was kind of stupid.
Not that it matters, but I wonder if the school still has a record of my attendance. I suppose it does.
[[In Texas, lying about a postsecondary degree to receive a job or a promotion is a class B misdemeanor]]
But in Massachusetts, lying agout heritage to relieve job or promotion apparently is encouraged
“…a warrant was issued for her arrest in September. The warrant, however, was later recalled, although it is unclear why.“
Is she white or black? That may provide an answer.
Saw her mugshot….YIKES!
When they hired me, I just told them I was degree-less (but I did have the 45 hours minimum required). Having a degree would mean $100.00 more per month (a lot of money then) so I got an external degree for about a grand. Then I decided, what the hell, I’ll go to law school. Now I’m really broke LOL!
Like the Scott Adams cartoon about lying about not going to an elite school by not claiming a degree that you actually have. Is that an ethics violation too?
Proud graduate of Whatsamatta U. Home of the fightin’ flying squirrels.
The hyphen should have been the first clue.
Capability doesn’t matter. Gotta have them papers.
Why lie when this creature could have easily gotten an AA degree in grievance studies and not even shown up?
Gina Fowler-Strickland lied, and was terminated.
One suspects that one day in the future, the lying will be reversed. That is, applicants will deny having diplomas from colleges to ensure their hiring.
