I don't see how a successful boycott against KU could form. I think even the freedom fries idiots had a better chance to advance their cause. First the awareness of this situation is very low. You'll need spend a lot to raise that awareness, which is already a gigantic undertaking by itself. Second the majority of people, even if they were aware, will probably be too apathetic to participate - especially since KU flights are cheap.
