Vegetarian Star

University Link Magazine

University Link Magazine‘s April 2010 issue is full of celebrations.

This month marks the publication’s 1st anniversary and they were lucky enough to snag a cover interview with Conan O’Brien, lover of the frozen peas.

Even better, the inside of the magazine contains an ad for peta2 featuring Sean Kingston and his dog Stella with the tagline,”Chill With Your Dogs, Never Chain Them.”

Described as an “edgy, fun socially conscious campus magazine written exclusively for college students by college students,” University Link Magazine has over 25,000 subscribers in 58 universities in Southern California.

With so many values formed during the college years, including going vegetarian and vegan, campus life magazines like ULM are a perfect outlet for spreading the message about animal rights.

Students who wish to combine their passion with a potential career may even opt to take advantage of several animal rights programs being developed at colleges, like the Dorothy Jo Barker Professorship for Animal Rights program at Drury University or the Animal Law program at University of Virginia, both of which received endowments from vegetarian, activist and former “Price Is Right,” host Bob Barker.

Sean Kingston for PETA

Sean Kingston has donated his face and time to a PETA campaign against chaining dogs.

The tagline, “Chill With Your Dogs, Never Chain Them,” may be catchy, but Sean is hoping the message behind the phrase will stick too.

“Look at it like being a human person. You’re family member is outside with no room to scoot, without a place to stay … that’s how they should look at it,” he says. “A lot of people should just think about: if that was them.”

Sean likes to chill with his dog Sunshine.

According to PETA, chained dogs are more likely to suffer illnesses from being exposed to harsh weather conditions and become vicious after constant confinement.

Watch the video for more on what Sean has to say about caring for dogs.
