In 2007 and 2008, the IU East campus restructured its curriculum and changed its’ look and priorities under the new leadership of Chancellor Nassar Paydar. IU East even had a new mascot, the Red Wolves, so the paper changed its name again in the fall of 2008 to The Howler. The IU East student newspaper has ran almost continuously since it started in 1973. The only year or issues missing is January 2007 thru May of 2008. Most likely nothing was published due to the organizational changes of the campus during this time. The first issue of The Howler debut in August of 2008. The Howler was a student written newspaper, although it was housed under the IU East Marketing department rather than an independent student organization. Another main difference from previous years is that it is was published monthly/bi-monthly instead of biweekly. The Howler ceased production in October 2017.
