I suspect there would be some fans (probably the younger,more liberal ones) who wouldn't have a problem with it.

I think there would be others (probably the older, more conservative ones) who would.

(Actually there is already a debate among a few Stanford fans on Facebook over the appropriateness of Kaepernick's actions. Not surprisingly some are OK with it; some aren't)

Yes, I think this is mostly correct.  Stanford is more politically diverse than some people might think, and so there would probably be a range of reactions.  In deference to our board's policy not to talk politics, let's not all express our own views on the subject.  I am beginning to think that instead of political science I should have gotten degrees in anthropology--understanding how people react to symbols seems to be critically important in our media-driven culture.
