The Northwest Missourian is the current campus newspaper for Northwest Missouri State University, Maryville, Missouri. Its predecessor, The Green and White Courier, began publishing November 14, 1914. The Green and White Courier continued until September 27, 1926, when its name changed to our current Northwest Missourian. The newspaper has had a variety of changes over the years in regard to the printed size and how often it was printed. "When money was scarce and printing help hard to get, the Northwest Missourian was printed as part of the Maryville Democrat Forum. During the Second World War it became a 'wartime miniature,' nine inches by twelve." The newspaper at times was printed weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.
