WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (Exponent) - Several student organizations collaborated in presenting a flash-mob variant of the most popular YouTube music video, "Gangnam Style."

Students passing through Centennial Mall on Monday afternoon were surprised to find themselves at the center of a coordinated rendition of the popular "Gangnam Style" song and dance. Upward of 50 students were dancing, with many more standing by as onlookers.

The spectacle was the product of a collaboration by several student groups, including the Korean-American Students Association, the Chinese Student and Scholar Association, the dance club and the Undergraduate Chinese Association.
