At least five people demonstrated Sunday during "Wacky Walk," a rambunctious, slow-moving stroll by graduating students dressed in zany costumes that precedes the official graduation events.
One person held a sign that declared "Stanford protects rapists." Another graduate's sign was a message to the victim: "You are a warrior."
Organizers said they wanted to show solidarity to the woman sexually assaulted on campus last year by former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner.
