Officials at both schools [University of Texas at San Antonio and the University of Maryland at College Park] said their records show her registered for classes there, but that she didn’t earn any degrees.<\/p>\n
Apodaca did earn a B.A. in sociology in 2003 at the University of Texas at Austin, but not a B.S. in biomedical engineering, as she listed on her LinkedIn page, according to that institution.<\/p>\n
Despite the Texas and Maryland LinkedIn entries, Apodaca convinced many co-workers she had earned her Ph.D. from Yale, records show. In one case, she put a Yale insignia next to her name in an Army slide show.<\/p>\n
A Yale spokeswoman said there is no record of anyone by that name holding any degree from Yale.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Oh, yeah, she had a security clearance, too, but no one uncovered the discrepancies until she pissed off a co-worker who raised concerns about her lack of training;<\/p>\n
Suspicions about Apodaca’s degrees were first raised by a former co-worker, who refused to be quoted by name because she feared being labeled a troublemaker in future jobs. On Jan. 21, the whistleblower says, she raised concerns about Apodaca with Dominique Greydanus, a contracting officer representative. He responded by defending Apodaca and calling the co-worker a troublemaker and mud-slinger, the co-worker said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Her duties included performing statistical analyses that were sent to the military treatment facilities in war theaters, where doctors used them to evaluate treatment decisions about injured soldiers, according to documents and interviews. She also contributed to scholarly research published in medical journals. She had access to the military’s classified network.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Apparently she’s in Scotland, according to AP, ducking AP’s questions. So, I guess any liar off the street can be a statistician for the government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
