Suggestions for anti-Schlafly activism?

Reader Katherine Chun Eriksen, who is graduating from Washington University in St. Louis this week, wrote us to ask about what action we’d suggest to respond to her school’s decision to “honorPhyllis “Martial Rape Doesn’t Exist” Schlafly. Katherine writes,

The “honorary” degree being presented to Phyllis Schlafly has caused quite a stir on campus and we are in the process of trying to decide how to protest the presentation during Commencement. I was wondering if you would be able to help us out by asking your readers to submit ideas for our protest. We would like to maintain the dignity and solemnity of the event while still making our point clear to those in attendance. We are looking for something that cannot be labeled at “juvenile” or “immature”.

So we thought we’d take a cue from Feministe Feedback, and pose the question to you, dear readers. Do you have activism suggestions for the feminists at Wash U?
