University of Houston to end ties with security company after fan assault

The University of Houston has cut all ties with Contemporary Services Corporation, the security company whose employees were caught on video tackling, punching, and kicking several University of Houston students after Saturday’s AAC Championship win.

“This is not the kind of thing I want,” said University President Renu Khator. “It’s our university. It’s our students. And nobody has the right to treat our students in this manner.”

We spoke with president Kator just moments after the team got the big news that they’ll play in Peach Bowl on New Year’s Eve. She says they took swift and immediate action to end the relationship with CSC.

“And anything else we need to do, we will do,” she said.
