Pitzer College Makes History: A Newly Installed Plaque Acknowledges the Animals Killed for Food and Seeks Change

Pitzer College has made history by installing a new memorial plaque outside its dining hall, honoring the millions of animals who have been killed for food on campus. Backed by activist Angela Davis and funded by PETA, the plaque serves as a reminder to students of the lives of the animals behind their meals.

The unveiling of the plaque was celebrated by students, faculty, and community members, with the goal of sparking reflection and promoting compassion towards animals. The memorial is a call to action for individuals to consider the impact of their food choices and to choose plant-based options to spare animals suffering and reduce their carbon footprint.
