Kwasniewski confesses that he matriculated but never graduated with M.A.
President Kwasniewski has filed his candidacy for President with the
Electoral Commission (PKW) describing his education as up to secondary
school. In the last election, Kwasniewski falsely stated he had graduated
with a Master's degree in foreign trade. He did complete his final year of
his studies but failed to submit a thesis which is a requirement for being
awarded the degree. In 1995, the Supreme Court ruled Kwasniewski had no
right to claim he had attained higher education but rejected an appeal from
defeated candidates who claimed the false statement could have unfairly
influenced voters. (Zycie, page 1) S.M.
