RadioShack CEO lied about his credentials

Posted on February 16th, 2006

The chief executive officer of RadioShack Corp., David Edmondson, lied about his academic credentials. The quote from him is that he “clearly misstated my academic record.”

Edmondson previously represented that he had a bachelor of science degree, but is now admitting that he might have something called a “ThG diploma”, which has fewer requirements than a bachelor’s degree. He apparently cannot provide proof of either degree.

Edmondson’s resume reflected a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Pacific Coast Baptist College in San Dimas, California. The school has never offered a psychology degree, however.
