Student Association of Vegan and Vegetarian Youth (SAVVY)
SAVVY provides support for vegetarians, vegans, and those interested in learning about the connection between the dietary and lifestyle choices people make and the impact of those choices on animals and the environment. SAVVY works throughout the year with Dining Services to help students maintain their vegetarian or vegan diets within different meal plans. This semester, SAVVY will be expanding into the campus and area communities by working on a Microfarm, partnering with vegan friendly restaurants, and serving vegetarian food at a homeless shelter.

I saw this event while I was walking through Wilson Commons and stayed for a bit. The music was good and lots of free stuff. Excellent program!
