Nuestra Cosa Newspaper



Nuestra Cosa has served as the official University of California, Riverside Chicano/Latino newspaper since 1972. Since its inception, Nuestra Cosa has served to improve communication for the campus community and to provide a medium in which students and staff can express themselves freely and responsibly. It has also introduced and trained students in basic journalistic skills and offered an excellent opportunity to become involved in a creative and exciting endeavor.
