BREAKING: Howard University Revokes Diddy’s Honorary Degree Amid Sexual Assault Charges
Howard University has chosen to rescind the honorary degree previously awarded to Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, following a unanimous decision by its Board of Trustees.
This determination was made in light of the numerous sexual assault allegations against Diddy and a recent video depicting an assault on his ex-girlfriend, Cassie, which was deemed inconsistent with the university’s foundational principles.
“The Howard University Board of Trustees voted unanimously today to accept the return by Mr. Sean Combs of the honorary degree conferred upon him in 2014,” a university spokesperson told Fox on Friday.
“This acceptance revokes all honors and privileges associated with the degree. Accordingly, the Board has directed that his name be removed from all documents listing honorary degree recipients of Howard University.”
Diddy, who attended Howard University for two years before departing in 1990, was granted the honorary doctorate and delivered the commencement address in 2014.
