If the damage is significant above a set amount then yes they can classify property destruction / criminal mischief / whatever the legal term as felonies. Charge all participants for cost to cure.
I am not talking about property damage. We already have laws for that. I am talking about students and taxpayers who paid to get an education and then their classes are disrupted, rescheduled, cancelled, etc.
If the UCLA, Columbia, et al were peaceful protest then there would be no disruption, rescheduling or cancellations. So your question is rhetorical at best.
But if there are no laws on the book you must be creative to make examples of the UCLA and Columbia rioters.
