I think that is a very fair point. Most of the university action against free speech is targeted not at students, but against controversial faculty and other 3rd parties.
Most of these actions are demanded by the student majority.
The underlying phenomenon is that the children are running the daycare and administration is doing their bidding. It is perfectly consistent that the admin only takes action against the most egregious students. However, a book, paper, or statement might get faculty removed. Similarly, invited guest speakers can be shut down by hecklers veto.
