My advice- talk to whoever is in charge of dining. Call, email, whatever. It may not seem like it, but I think the majority of them actually DO care what the students think haha. Even suggesting small changes, like adding vegetarian sources of protein on the salad bar (beans, chickpeas, tofu) can make a difference. If you have veg friends at school get them to email as well, the more the merrier! Good luck!
These are all great ideas ... if you can approach dining services with a group of people who are concerned about this, it will probably be more effective. Unfortunately, it does seem to depend somewhat on how liberal or conservative your college campus is. If the campus isn't too progressive, they might not have a veg*n group or an enviro group, but you can always start one! I agree that you want to start working on this issue now ... does your school have a website where you can look up what sorts of student groups are on campus? That might be one way to start ... Also - another idea, if your school has a paper that is published by its students, start with a letter to the editor or even contact the paper and ask them to do a feature on this ... Good Luck!
