The University of Arizona corrected a website after the Arizona Daily Star asked why it said Vice Provost/Dean of Students Kendal Washington White holds a doctorate when she does not.
Up until Wednesday, the University of Arizona provost’s website inaccurately claimed Vice Provost for Campus Life and Dean of Students Kendal Washington White holds a doctorate in educational leadership from Northern Arizona University.
UA, White updated webpagesWithin hours of the Star asking Washington White about these discrepancies on Wednesday, the UA provost’s webpage, which hosted the incorrect information about a doctorate, was updated to say “Kendal Washington White holds a Master of Education degree from Northern Arizona University.”
To get the job, Washington White added, “I participated in a nationwide search from a consultant and earned the position per my credentials and performance.” Although White is the likely arbiter of her own LinkedIn page, it is not clear who made those erroneous modifications to the provost’s website, why or exactly when.
Regardless of how Washington White’s credentials were misrepresented, “the fact remains that there inaccuracies on an institutional website and this person’s LinkedIn," Eaton said in an interview Thursday."To exemplify integrity and ethics those things should be clarified.”
