VPN does what EZProxy does already -- make web access appear to come from an on-campus address -- but for ALL web access, not just access that follows links from your web pages using EZProxy. This assumes outgoing traffic from users using the VPN will be on an IP address recognized as 'licensed' by your vendors, which it typically is. If people are using VPN's and happy with it, that's actually a MORE reliable solution than EZProxy. Rather than tell them to turn off your VPN, I would ensure you have EZProxy configured not to interfere with it, if possible. If they are on a VPN, and then ALSO go through EZProxy... it should _work_, but it'll hurt performance, as all traffic is effectively being sent through two proxies, for no reason. You should instead configure your EZProxy so when a client is on an IP Address recognized as the VPN, EZProxy simply redirects without proxying instead of double-proxying the traffic.
