醜聞! 英國王室公主被曝'走後門'上大學
Princess Eugenie was initially rejected by Newcastle University and then given a place because of who she was, it was claimed.
據報道，英國的尤金妮公主最初被紐卡斯爾大學拒絕入學，但是在得知其身份之後，還是將其錄取了。Her application was allegedly dismissed as 'not good enough' by an admissions officer who hadn't realised the applicant was a member of the royal family.
據悉，一名招生官員駁回了尤金妮的入學申請，因爲她的條件“不夠好”，但是這名招生官員顯然沒有意識到尤金妮是英國王室的一員。When the 'horrified' university authorities realised what had happened they offered the Duke and Duchess of York's daughter a place on an alternative degree course.
但是當“驚駭”的校領導意識到發生了什麼之後，他們立刻給這位約克公爵夫婦的女兒提供了另外一個學位的錄取名額。
The allegations were made by Dr Martin Farr, a senior history lecturer at Newcastle University, in a speech to the anti-monarchist campaign group Republic's annual convention in the city.
這一事件是由該校高級歷史講師馬丁·法爾所透露的，他在紐卡斯爾反共和黨（一個反君主主義者組織）的年度會議上發表了該講話。Eugenie ended up doing a combined BA honours degree in English literature, history of art and politics at Newcastle and graduated at the end of her three-year course in 2012.
尤金妮最終在紐卡斯爾大學獲得了英國文學、藝術史和政治方面的聯合榮譽學士學位，並於2012年完成第三年的課程後畢業。The comments by Dr Farr imply that she was given special treatment to get her into the university for PR purposes.
法爾的這一席話表明，尤金妮是因爲公關的緣故被給予了特殊照顧，所以才能進入紐卡斯爾大學。He said the royal VIP was rejected for a degree in English literature before being found a place on the apparently less competitive combined degree when her identity came to light.
據他表示，這位王室貴賓最開始申請英國文學學位被拒，但是後來當她身份曝光時，她被錄取進了另外一個競爭不那麼激烈的聯合學位。
