NDSU Looking Into Another Campus Skit

"This reaffirms the fact that diversity training is needed for all people from all backgrounds," he said.

Student body President Josh Reimnitz said he did not think Friday's incident would have been an issue "had it happened at a different time."

NDSU received a formal complaint following the March 18 blackface incident, in which the Obama impersonator received a lap dance while two students simulated a sex act in the background.

The sorority that sponsored the event, Alpha Gamma Delta, and the group that did the lip-sync act, the Saddle and Sirloin Club, have publicly apologized.

Some NDSU students plan to gather on Thursday for a rally to support diversity and speak out against intolerance. Chris Ziniel, a student organizer, said the rally plans were not prompted by any single incident.
