How did I miss this? Check out this great video of the faculty and student response!

That is f*ucking awesome!!!! It’s about time that Bush cronies realize they mean nothing to the American public. As such, they will be treated accordingly!
Amen, Brother!
I was absolutely tickled to see such a unanimous, concerted protest of the usurpation of both the graduates’ ceremony and the university’s reputation by the bestowing of an honor on nothing more than a mindless lackey of an anti-intellectual, dictatorial regime. The man represents the antithesis of the ideal of education in America and had no business being there at all.
When they booed him right off the stage, I was booing at the top of my own lungs right here with them.
The neighbors were probably a little pissed cause I was pretty loud and it was nearly midnight, but they’ll get over it.
