Take Action: 5 Colleges Adopt Meatless Mondays!
I’ve written about Baltimore adopting Meatless Mondays in the public schools. Happily, other institutions are taking notice. Five colleges now have some sort of program to promote meatless Mondays. They all implement the program in different ways.
The University of California, Santa Barbara is removing all meat from one cafeteria and beef from all three cafeterias.
The University of Central Florida is offering monetary incentives for students who choose vegetarian options on Mondays.
Click here to see how the other schools (Oxford University, University of Maryland, University of California, Davis) are doing it.
Now, if you are a college student, please please please consider asking your school to adopt the program. Go to the Meatless Mondays page, learn about the movement and set up a meeting with the head of dining at your school. See if you can work together to help implement some sort of Meatless Mondays program.
It’s not as hard as you might think. When I was in grad school I got my college to switch to cage free eggs. Just be prepared, be polite and do what you can to help.
