Howard University Revokes Sean Combs's Honorary Degree Amid Abuse Allegations

Howard University has voted to revoke Sean Combs's honorary degree and disband a scholarship in his name due to abuse allegations against him. The decision was made unanimously by the university's board of trustees following investigations into the allegations. The university also returned gifts received from Combs, citing his "interpersonal violence." Combs apologized for his behavior and claimed to have sought professional help and rehabilitation. He settled a lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend over abuse and rape allegations. The university's decision was based on Combs's behavior being incompatible with its core values. Combs faces multiple lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct and other illegal activities.
