In 2005, Brown University's "Queer Alliance" threw a raucous party entitled “Sex Power God,” in one of the university's oldest buildings, Sayles Hall, where required Sunday religious services were once held. According to some reports, a number of students had to receive emergency medical assistance due to over-consumption of [[alcohol]]. Reporters with fake ID's attended the event with hidden cameras, resulting in footage which was soon featured on [[The O'Reilly Factor]], where Bill O'Reilly stated "You would have been safer in [[Baghdad]] than on the campus of Brown University," and calling Brown president Ruth Simmons and other university leaders "pinheads."
