CNN published a 2016 surveillance video showing Combs physically assaulting his former girlfriend, singer Cassie Ventura, at the now-closed InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles.
The Washington, DC-based historically Black college or university said it will disband its scholarship program in Combs’ name.
The US Department of Homeland Security’s investigative arm launched a federal probe into Combs and allegations of sex trafficking.
Meanwhile, investigators are preparing to bring Combs’ accusers before a federal grand jury in New York, sources familiar with the probe told CNN.
Combs recently sold a majority stake in media company and television network Revolt, which he founded in 2013, the company said.
