Howard University Takes Back Sean Diddy Combs’ Honorary Degree

American rapper Sean Diddy Combs has been under intense scrutiny recently. Howard University, which awarded Diddy an honorary degree in 2014, decided to revoke it following his admission of assaulting Cassie Ventura.

The assault video, originally obtained by CNN, dates back to 2016 and shows Diddy violently attacking his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.

Reportedly, the board of trustees voted unanimously to rescind the media mogul’s degree. They also announced their intention to return a million-dollar donation Diddy had made to the university. However, it was noted that the 2023 pledge agreement with the Sean Combs Foundation was not fulfilled, as no payment was made, so there are no funds to be returned.

Howard University posted on its X handle and released a statement saying, “Mr. Combs’ behavior as captured in a recently released video is so fundamentally incompatible with Howard University’s core values and beliefs that he is deemed no longer worthy to hold the institution’s highest honor. The University is unwavering in its opposition to all acts of interpersonal violence.”

The assault video, which surfaced online last month, is CCTV footage from a hotel where Diddy stayed with Ventura. In the clip, Ventura is seen running towards the elevator in a towel, chased by Diddy. He grabs her, throws her to the floor, and kicks her multiple times. As she lies motionless, he returns to kick her again and throws an object at her.
