Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Athletics unveiled a new look Monday, showcasing a brand-new Cougar head for the first time since 2007.
The University's Marketing and Communications team designed two versions of the cougar, which were then put to a vote. More than 7,000 SIUE students, faculty, staff and alumni voted to select the new logo.
"The new cougar head represents a modernized version of the legendary cougar-symbolizing spirit and pride in SIUE. It becomes the primary mark for SIUE Athletics and will be used in addition to SIUE Cougars wordmark," according to SIUE's website.
