There is a very strong campaign at the St. Mary's University seeking to at least break the exclusive contract with Aramark and at best bringing an alternative food service. Aramark Corp at SMU is a microcosm of the food issues on numerous campuses across canada which, in the main, have similar exclusive food service, if not simply corporate, food service regimes. There are many student campaigns underfoot that seek an alternative to corporate penetration of campuses as well as instituting alternative models. There are anti-coke/bottle water campaigns which link up in many ways as well. There are a wonderful array of alternative models at Canadian and American schools  but there is a lot of room left for improvement. The most insidious elements of this issue is that students have lost their ability to imagine an alternative to corporate and global provisioning which disregard the health, livelihoods and enviro impacts locally as well as globally.
