It does, but it's states that it's illegal to deny access to educational institutions based on religion. It doesn't say that the university has to provide any accommodations to them, other than equal access. It doesn't say the university has to change its decor.

On the other hand, providing them a neutral conference room or classroom with no crucifixes or other overtly Christian decoration doesn't seem like a huge deal. I'm sure these students pay tuition. The school doesn't have to do anything, but it would be a nice gesture to its students.
