Learning never ends, most especially for Deniece Cornejo who got a perfect score in the finals of an online course she took under HarvardX.
HarvardX is Harvard University’s offerings of massive open online courses (MOOCs), which are available for free.
The model celebrated her achievement on Sunday, Sept. 1, in a Facebook post. “I finally did it! And received a cute gift. Yes I passed!!!! Got the perfect [100] in the finals!”
She said she had been hard at work on her studies for about eight months for a course on child protection offered by the Harvard FXB Center for Health and Human Rights.
In the picture that she shared, Cornejo posed with a Harvard scarf that she said was a gift from her mentor, Jacqueline Bhabha, director of research at the Harvard FXB Center for Health and Human Rights.
“The work continues for the children rights protection program where countries such as Nigeria, Nepal, Africa, Japan, US, India and Russia took active participation in the discussion. I am honored to lobby for international human rights specifically in children rights theory and practice,” she wrote.
It will be remembered that Cornejo accused actor Vhong Navarro of raping her in her condominium in 2014. Her complaints were junked in 2018 due to inconsistent testimonies, which she said were because she was “confused and traumatized.”
The model and two companions were found guilty of grave coercion in 2018. Cornejo and one of her companions, businessman Cedric Lee, have sought to reverse the court’s conviction and want a Taguig judge removed from the judiciary because the decision was based on the affidavit of only one of 10 prosecution witnesses. /ra
