I think the simplest 'solution' would be for universities to stand for freedom of speech, refuse to back down to any extremist students or professors and tell them that if they don't like it, go elsewhere Time to stop treating students like customers who are 'always right'.
And I think the same could fix 'outrage' culture in general. Refuse to back down, ignore the complainers. Every time someone tries to get someone else fired for some 'mistake' they made in Twitter or whatever, tell them to sod off and say you don't care what a small minority of complainers say on those sites. They don't matter, their numbers are so small tha you can safely ignore them and life would continue as normal.
Remove the tribunals, remove the free speech restrictions, ignore the complaints about statues and offensiveness and just run the university as it always has been run. Things will improve pretty quickly.
