Biographical Note: “The Panther” newspaper was a student publication started at The Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College with the mission to tell the voice of the student population and advocate exciting news around campus. The origins of the newspapers are unknown, including which department helped create the publication. The only information available is that the newspapers were printed by the Printing Department of Prairie View State College in the 1940s. The Panther is a non-profit, self-supporting publication. All editorials published are discussed and written by the editorial staff. In the 1990s, the newspaper changed publishing to biweekly only and ceased until 2018.
