The Cougar is a weekly newspaper run entirely by students at the University of Houston.
In publication since April 6, 1928, The Cougar was originally named The Cougar but was renamed The Daily Cougar and again renamed The Cougar in the fall of 2014 when the print edition turned weekly.[1] The Cougar operates as a student-managed, school-funded forum for the university community.
The Cougar publishes on Wednesday during the school year, but stories area added daily to its website presence.
