Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity is weathering controversy after a post on the anonymous smart phone app Yik Yak alluding to a video of a woman performing oral sex on a man was circulated earlier this week.
In the sexually explicit video the unidentified male filming the video asks the female, “What’s the best fraternity at MSU?” to which the woman replies, “Pike,” the fraternity’s nickname, in slurred speech. It’s unknown if the act was consensual or if the woman was inebriated.
The fraternity has been accused on anonymous message boards online like Yik Yak of drugging the female in the video and filming the video non-consensually.
President of Pi Kappa Alpha Christopher Kojaian categorically denied his fraternity’s involvement in the video. He alleged the video originated at another university with the same acronym as MSU, and said the fraternity is going to wait out any potential fallout from the video.
“It’s a very unfortunate situation,” Kojaian said. “We feel very bad for the girl in the video. We had absolutely nothing to do with the production or the distribution of the video and we don’t think it has anything to do with Michigan State University.”
