The correct answer would be to put the "s around what is stated anytime anyone is talking. So your answer would be "Many students said that they would love to have a salad bar in the school cafeteria."

Answer:

Many students said that they would love to have a salad bar in the school cafeteria.

Explanation:

Indirect quotations, also called indirect speech or reported speech, does not make use of quotation marks at all. Instead, the speaker reports what has been said through a relative clause, usually beginning with the relative pronoun "that" (which can be omitted in most cases).
