Name that Cougar

Some people call me Roary. Others call me Ken. Most people don’t know what to call me and simply shout, “Hey Cougar!”

As the Kean Cougar mascot, I am full of spirit and love for Kean, but I have no name. Can you help me?

I am inviting all Kean students, alumni, faculty and staff to submit ideas for my new name.

If your submission is chosen, you’ll win a Kean hoodie, a social media story with yours truly and bragging rights to last a lifetime. 

Some things to keep in mind:

• I represent Kean students, including student-athletes. So my name should be positive and maybe a little bit fun.
   
• 
  I cheer for men’s and women’s teams so gender-neutral names are a plus.
   
• I am a fierce animal, but I also give kids high fives at football games so scary names don’t work.

Submit your suggestions here. The deadline is January 31. A winner will be announced in February.

Cheers,

The Cougar

P.S. Once I get a new name, I’m also getting a makeover so you can make suggestions for my new look on the form too.
