The camp of former senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. is open to having his academic records from Oxford University questioned after a group said he didn’t finish his degree at the prestigious academic institution.
“We stand by the degree confirmation which was issued by the University of Oxford. It is up to anyone to question or challenge this with the said university if they so please,” Marcos’ chief of staff, Vic Rodriguez, said in a statement Saturday (October 23).
“Presidential aspirant Bongbong Marcos has always been forthright on his conferment of a special diploma in social studies by the distinguish university and has never misrepresented his Oxford education,” Rodriguez added.
Marcos’ camp issued the statement after the Oxford Philippines Society (OPS), a group of Filipino students and alumni from the institution, said the former senator didn’t obtain a degree from Oxford.
OPS said the Special Diploma in Social Sciences given to Marcos in 1978 “is not a degree, and neither is it comparable, superior nor equivalent to one.”
