MANILA, Philippines — Presidential aspirant and former Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. on Saturday insisted that he obtained a degree from the University of Oxford. Victor Rodriguez also said that their camp “stands by the Degree confirmation which was issued by the University of Oxford” for Marcos. In the same month last year, Oxford Philippines Society, a group of Filipino students and alumni of Oxford, said that Marcos did not obtain a degree from the university. This was officially confirmed by Oxford University in 2015… Bongbong Marcos has been awarded a Special Diploma in Social Studies in 1978. A Special Diploma is not a degree, and neither is it comparable, superior nor equivalent to one,” the organization said.
