MODERATORS
The first amendment in USA gives them the right to protest even on the school ground and the school can't deny permission if the students are peaceful. And they are.
Everything else you said as irrelevant.
Saying it doesn't make it so. You grossly misunderstand your rights, but I'm not going to repeat myself.
Tell the lawyers that

I only read the aclu one as the only reputable source I recognize. That doesn't say what you seem to think it says.
You yourself cited the requirement to be expression neutral. And I have provided links showing they weren't and that multiple student groups are suing because of it.
Are the students expected to just sit back and stay silent when the university doesn't allow them to express themselves on equal terms?
That's literally what protests are for, and also literally why charges were withdrawn against a whole bunch of students in at least one case, because it wasn't a "clear case of trespassing" when the students protested peacefully.
At least one police department has already figured it out
