Whether they’re concerned about the climate catastrophe, saving animals, or improving their health, more and more young people are recognizing the benefits of going vegan. According to the Good Food Institute, the sales of animal-free foods grew three times faster than overall food sales in 2021. Research shows that Gen Zers specifically view going vegan as a way to promote compassion toward animals, address the climate catastrophe, lower their carbon footprint, and promote sustainability. Check out which universities are moving with the times and offering vegan options!

Just correcting the criteria….in addition to the three we have nondairy milk (both soy and almond) readily available in the dining hall. There is also a vegan student member on the student advisory board. In addition to this, they label vegetarian and vegan entree’s even in the non-vegan zones of the dining hall.

At Sewanee we have a great vegan line that always had brown rice, some kind of bean, and either a a sweet or naked potato. There are also three other dishes as options that change depending on the meal. Usually there is some kind of protein like tofu, seitan, or beans as well as vegetables, and another rice. Soy milk is available in the milk dispensers and there is almond milk in a separate fridge. The vegan line is always vegan and sometimes also gluten free. The food is always top notch.
