Why do you say "wrongly"? It's one thing to punish bad speech; it's quite another to block furture speech which may be good or bad. Generally the first amendment requires punishing speech after the fact outside of some narrow circumstances.
It's not clear to me how the university would block only threats in the future without restraining potentially legitimate speech.
