Wesleyan is still battling it out against American University for the title of PETA's "Most Vegetarian Friendly College" of 2008. While both American and Wesleyan are run by Bon Appetit, the title would surely help to lure more prefrosh to Wesleyan, so go ahead and vote one last time. Voting ends November 17th.
All I know about this PETA2 vegetarian contest thing is that Wesleyan is somehow winning in its group (we just beat SUNY Fredonia), and I would assume that people other than Bon Appetit higher-ups are voting for us.
Bon Appetit employee Bernice Laille says:
"It's a victory in itself to have made it this far in the contest, but now the competition is really kicking into high gear! We're facing off against Ohio University, who has really rallied the student body through on-campus email promotions. We must definitely want to pull out all of the stops to help drive in as many votes from everyone as soon as possible before the third round ends!"And in case you hadn't already noticed from a trip to Usdan this week, Bon Appetit really wants us to win:
So if you'd like to continue this victory streak and prove our veg-friendly prowess against Ohio University, or want an an apparent chance to win a $100 Best Buy gift certificate, vote here, the third round ends Wednesday at 5.
Wesleyan won Round 1 of PETA2's 2008 Most Vegetarian-Friendly Colleges. After surpassing our first series of competitors, Wesleyan is now up against SUNY Fredonia, Georgetown, Ohio University, UCLA, SUNY Purchase and ten other schools.
We have already outranked UC Berkeley, Yale, UPenn, Temple and UNC Chapel Hill.
Cast your vote NOW! Voting ends on November 10th.
