Howard University Rescinds Sean Combs’ Honorary Doctorate: ‘No Longer Worthy’

Howard University's board voted unanimously to rescind Sean "Diddy" Combs' honorary doctorate and return his $1 million gift, calling him "not worthy"

The move also comes after Rolling Stone published a six-month investigation last week that includes new allegations Combs physically assaulted a woman outside her Howard dorm when he was a student there in the late Eighties. Last month, CNN obtained and published video showing Combs shoving, kicking, stomping, and dragging Ventura in a hallway of the InterContinental Hotel in Los Angeles in 2016. Speaking to Rolling Stone on the condition of anonymity due to fear of retribution, sources allege Combs turned up to the school’s historic Harriet Tubman Quadrangle dorm one evening and began screaming in a “belligerent” manner for his girlfriend to come outside.
