Yes, if the students were not Muslim.
That is because it would probably be a hate crime. College students who want to do silly pranks have tons of "Christian symbols" all over the place to use for their pranks. Finding the relative few Islamic symbols where they are would be much more calculated and for a purpose beyond a student prank.

No.
Even if Islam did, no one should be arrested based on Islamic standards. The perspective of this being a crime is based on (whether it is reported and) the law.
