You're missing the point.

Does the first amendment give him a constitutional right to an auditorium?

No. UF's fear of liability does.

They don't have the same fear when you speak.

ETA: Actually think out what could happen if he was "on the street". Who would be responsible? WHo would be paying out damages? More or less than the costs for security and venue?

They are guaranteed the auditorium if the speaker is following a policy to reserve the auditorium. This may include an on campus sponsor, a fee of some sort, etc.

You can't decide that one person can reserve the auditorium over another based on the message. You also can't do it by pretending it's based on safety.
