The University of Michigan, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and most recently, Western Oregon University are just a few of the schools who have allegedly made “plant-based” menu commitments. Most of these pledges are made in partnership with the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) to reduce the number of animal-based choices.
