Another university is bringing Christine O'Donnell's self-professed education history into question Wednesday, as Claremont Graduate University, a school that the Delaware Senate candidate claims she attended, has told Talking Points Memo that they have no record of her being there.
"Claremont Graduate University has no student or education record for an individual named Christine O'Donnell," Rod Leveque, a spokesman for Claremont told TPM Tuesday, despite O'Donnell's inclusion of the school on her LinkedIn education history.
A similar response had been given earlier to blogger and radio producer Gary Scott, who thought to inquire based on the news that O'Donnell had not even officially received her undergraduate degree from Farleigh Dickinson University until earlier this month.
TPM did a little digging and found that her campaign site might give a more accurate depiction of her involvement with a conservative think tank called the Claremont Institute, which has no relationship to the Claremont Graduate University that she has filed under the education section of her LinkedIn profile.
A search of the website finds that O'Donnell did receive a Lincoln Fellowship from the Institute in 2002, though her inclusion of the word "graduate" seems to raise a few questions, as it goes unmentioned on the award's description.
On Tuesday, Greg Sargent of the Washington Post reported that O'Donnell had also filed "University of Oxford" on the education section of her LinkedIn profile, when the true nature of her tenure there appears to be as a student of a Phoenix Institute course that had simply rented out space at the school.
These two new discrepancies also come in the wake of an earlier controversy surrounding O'Donnell's relationship with a former employer, the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, and her taking of courses at Princeton University. O'Donnell ended up suing ISI for $150,000, claiming lost "earning power" due to the fact that they had not given her ample time to complete coursework at the university. At the time she had only audited one undergraduate class.
