“Ohio State is committed to a safe and healthy environment and expects students and student organizations to uphold that commitment and the university’s values,” the statement said.
Both of the men then run around and attempt to shed their clothing while others come in to help them stamp out the flames, according to the video.
Steve Mitchell, CEO of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, said behavior that violates its high standards has no place in its organization and it will take appropriate action to hold those responsible accountable based on the investigation.
“The university is aware of this extremely concerning incident, and the individuals in question are receiving medical care,” Johnson said in a statement.
