I think it was more of a "you threw a ball through my window, boy - now look me in the eye and say you're sorry!" type thing but the child is yelling at the old man (woman) instead. I think the students wanted to be acknowledged by their Chancellor and were being treated as if they were a threat to her, which was unfair and uncalled for (they were the victims - not the abusers!)
At the end of the day, which is better - that she face the catalyst of a crowd she is obligated towards or that she be able to maintain her delusions of innocence for the sake of her pride? In my books, when you are willing to hold a high-level public office position like a university chancellor, you don't act like a stubborn and shy 7 year old girl when things get heated; you act like a professional and do what you need to do. Remember, she asked for the responsibility of leadership before anything else, and ended up abusing that power against the interest of those she was to protect.
