No see pjyama jump was stopped as a number of opportunistic men (not students) took it upon themselves to dress appropriately and hang around outside the places it was occurring and pick off girls who were absolutely hammered. They had increasing problems for 3 years and then on the fourth (which I think was 1993 or 1994 - the year I went anyway) 7 women reported rapes and a large number of being assaulted. The SU looked at ways of trying to police the event or make it a bit safer but it was so big and out of hand by then there just wasn't a way of doing it, so they pulled the plug.
