The Stanford Daily blurb is ambiguous as to whether 1. the student posed and posted it themselves, or 2. a bystander took a picture and sought to embarrass them for committing the crime of curiosity.
It sounds like 2. which would be concerning to academic freedom, but if it's 1. then maybe they were young, insensitive, and made a mistake. I doubt Stanford is in the business of accepting Neo-Nazis as proof of diversity. Also, the politically powerful as many Stanford students' families are, they tend to be concerned about "doing everything perfectly" to not be screamed at, lose respect of, or be cut off from their friends or family for doing something to embarrass them.
