Throwing things at Karl Rove

Karl Rove may be a wow with the Beltway journalists but with university students, not so much:

Rove was on the campus to talk to the College Republicans, but when he got outside more than a dozen students began throwing things at him and at his car, an American University spokesperson said.
The students then got on the ground and laid down in front of his car as a protest.
The students said security officials picked them up and carried them away so Rove could leave.
Police said they have dealt with a lot of protests on campus and this one was handled peacefully.
No one was arrested.

I'll bet the university faculty vote to give them each a medal.
