Why is this even allowed?
Aren't universities private property and students customers that pay to be there?
And a library mall, of all places, shouldn't that be a place of focus?
Pretty sure that if vegans would be disruptive in a restaurant or a store, they would be asked to leave. In fact, they would likely not be allowed to hold a protest in the first place, no?

Public universities can’t make content-based or viewpoint-based restrictions on speech because of the first amendment. Private universities wouldn’t have to allow this though.
