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!

We assess completed questionnaires and the dining hall menus of thousands of colleges and universities across the country and then grade the schools to help you determine how your current or prospective one stacks up.

I don’t know when the last time this was updated, but the school now has 2 new dining halls since 2013. They both offer nondairy milk, promote veg options and offers an all-veg station. This school is becoming more progressive with its options and may sign the Meatless Monday pledge soon

Fairly disappointed in the offering of vegan food. There is usually vegan entrees but are loaded with sodium and fat, just as unhealthy as the regular offerings. Even the salad bar is sparse with different vegetables. It seems like they just slap a bland rice dish on the side and label vegan without any consideration of health. It is much easier and accommodating to be vegetarian in the dining halls because they serve a vast amount of cheese with most of their general meals.

I’m actually disappointed in the offerings at University of Delaware. It’s not diverse and even a large majority of the salads have cheese or meat in them. A girl gets tired of eating wraps and veggie sushi all the time. Thank goodness for the options on Main Street and the fact that I can pack things from home.
