The CBC quotes Joanne Rider of York University as saying: “I can confirm that Rohinie Bisesar received a Bachelor of Administrative Studies degree in 2004 and a Masters of Business Administration degree in 2007,” said Joanne Rider, a York University spokesperson, in a statement. “We are not able to provide further comment.” A LinkedIn profile that appears to belong to Bisesar says she held several positions as an employee at York University between 1999-2007, including as systems administrator, technical information analyst, web communications coordinator and chair of the Schulich Women in Leadership club.The LinkedIn profile also lists Bisesar as chair of a sub-committee for Women in Capital Markets, a networking association, between 2011-2013.  “She was superb both for the outstanding quality of her work and for her warmth and interpersonal skills,” said a former colleague and a York University associate professor, Georges Monette, in a recommendation on her profile.
