Sean Combs loses honorary degree from Howard
Howard University has rescinded the honorary degree it awarded Sean "Diddy" Combs and cut financial ties with the hip-hop mogul following the recent release of a 2016 video that appeared to show Combs attacking his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. The university said Combs' behavior in that video is fundamentally incompatible with the school's core values and beliefs.
