Moments after Jan Brewer signed AZ SB 1070 into law the talk of boycott has gone off the chart. A quick google search will bring you almost 3 million results ranging 
from blog post, boycott wear, and videos about the protest. Over the weekend I started to hear news about possible boycott of the 2011 All-Star game in Phoenix, and now I am starting to hear reports about city governments like Austin, LA, San Francisco, Dallas and St. Paul boycotting the State of AZ, and I am somewhat amazed buy how quickly and wide-spread the boycotts have grown.
There are 2 organizations that have not yet spoken on the issue that has a direct connections to college campuses. One is the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors, or (AFA). They are scheduled to have their National Conference in Phoenix December 1-5 and have yet to make a statement publicly on their website if there are any thoughts of moving the location. They have, however, created a space on their members forum to have a open discussion about the issue. The 2nd organization is the BCS. The National Championship of Football will be decided in Glendale, AZ. No institution has contacted the BCS expressing concerns about the game according to ESPN.com. It also said…
Bill Hancock, who runs the BCS, said Friday afternoon that he has not heard anything about the BCS Championship Game being played in Arizona.
Two decades ago, when the state refused to approve a holiday honoring Martin Luther King, Jr., the NFL rescinded its decision to stage Super Bowl XXVII in Tempe. The 1991 Fiesta Bowl ended up with Alabama, with its 7-4 record, because several other schools refused to play in the state.
What is the reaction where you live? Is there talk? Are People boycotting?
