🕵️‍♂️ A Mystery at the University of Edinburgh 🕰️
This is Alan Mackay — a man who somehow climbed his way up to become Deputy Vice Principal at one of Scotland’s most prestigious universities.
And yet... naebody knows what he actually studied.
His degrees? Hidden.
His research? None available.
His academic background? Completely secretive.
Even the Scottish universities he attended are mysteriously absent from public record.
But here’s what we do know:
He once joined an 8-day executive course at the Harvard Graduate School of Education — not a degree, just a professional development programme. Harvard themselves clearly state:
“Only graduates of our degree programmes may call themselves alumni.”
📌 Mr Mackay is not listed in Harvard’s official alumni directory.
📌 Yet he proudly claims to be an “Alumnus of Harvard University.”
This is not just an exaggeration — it’s a lie.
💥 Why is a Deputy Vice Principal at a Scottish university lying about being a Harvard alumnus, while hiding the very Scottish universities he actually attended? It’s downright shameful.
And here’s the kicker:
Despite all this, the University of Edinburgh says it is “satisfied” with his false academic claim — even though Harvard has said NO.
🔍 Why would the University defend someone misusing another university’s credentials?
đź’° Why are public funds being used to support this deception?
đź§ľ Public funds.
🎓 Fake credentials.
🤫 Silence from those in charge.
Something doesn’t add up. And the public deserves answers.
