Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Lauren is the youngest, as well as the only female, SHAC 7 defendant. She is a magna cum laude graduate of New York University, where she was a student in NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized study. She first became involved in animal rights activism by way of the university's animal rights group, Students for Education on Animal Liberation (SEAL). With SEAL, Lauren protested against animal testing at NYU (which, at the time, had paid the largest fine ever for violations of the Animal Welfare Act) and campaigned to implement vegan food options in NYU's dining halls. This latter effort resulted in a substantial increase in vegan options in the dining halls, including a vegan entrée now offered at every meal, as well as once-monthly events, wherein NYU's dining halls were entirely vegan for a full day (Lauren graduated in December of 2000 and, to this day, NYU still holds monthly vegan dinners in its dining halls). The vegan food program at NYU has served as a model for similar programs subsequently implemented at colleges and universities around the country.
