Ohh, southern California, you never disappoint.

Last Tuesday, peta2 held its first on-campus speaking event (co-hosted by the student group Bruins for Animals), featuring Skinny Bitch author Rory Freedman. As has been the trend at peta2 events recently, it was standing room only. We crammed over 200 students into a UCLA lecture hall fit for 160, where they chowed down on vegan "chicken" salad wraps, straight out of the best-seller Skinny Bitch in the Kitch, and enjoyed a talk about the health and ethical benefits of veganism. Check it out!

Pretty awesome, right?!?

As if that weren't enough, we used our spare hours here and there to work with the AMAZING student groups at Cal State - Long Beach and the University of California - Irvine, to help them promote vegetarianism on campus.

Meat-eaters don't stand a chance. :)

Finally, peta2 comes to SoCal !! What an awesome event it must have been. I'm thinking about going to UCLA's School of Medicine, but am undecided. It's a great university. I really do hope peta2 does another event here in SoCal. I think it would be a great idea if you did an event just for the younger supporters (aka high schoolers). Let me know if there will be any upcoming events here in SoCal;the beautiful place I call home. Take care!
