419. So it seems you didn't watch the entire video.

The guy (I said "dude" because it fit in the subject line) with the bullhorns is Aaron Torop, one of the organizers. You can see him at the beginning of the video walking Nancy Pelosi to the stage and then starting the event. Pelosi even mentions him in her opening remarks. In fact, you can see him floating around during the whole event.

He's easy to spot; beard, red shirt, yarmulke.

After leaving Esty, it took Torop & Levitan about a minute to meet Sanders with the other bullhorn.

No, I didn't hear all the students chanting "Let her speak, let her speak". I did hear a few of them chanting it though.

Before and after Sanders' lengthy speech (a whopping one minute and 7 seconds) did you hear a lot more students chanting "BERNIE! BERNIE! BERNIE!"?
