Much like Melania speaking a couple of languages and having multiple degrees from Universities who say she doesn't

"I did not plan to deceive or mislead anyone". Then what the fuck did you plan on doing. You said you had a degree in a non existing program at that University. I think I would call it misleading and a fucking big deception, but that is just me/

Perhaps we should submit the question to The United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America. If anyone knows, it would be the union membership.

Yes!!! I've forgotten to go to class, but it's too late to withdraw! And I'm trying to tell myself - Hey, dream-me! You already have a degree - and an advanced degree - and a job, and NOBODY WILL CARE if I now have an F on my transcript!! But, that doesn't help dream-me feel any better...

There's a difference between a deliberate lie and not blurting out something that may hurt your cause. I'm an Immunologist, Virologist, Cell Biologist, and Oncology Researcher, and I have people call me "Dr." Sometimes I correct them, other times I don't. I never put M.D. or Ph.D. after my name because I didn't go that way. In discussing a friend/relative, etc. with Big C and they want my advice, I always say: I'm not a Licensed Physician, and cannot diagnose, treat, or recommend one treatment over another, that's a clinician's job. I can search clinical trials. gov for them, and explain how therapies work and what the published response rates are.

It's a fine line, but once you can see the lane markings, it's not hard.
