Unlike most major universities in the South, Greek Life and sorority recruitment at the University of Houston is a small and close knit community which accounts for a small percent of UH’s student population. My freshman year of college I decided I would go through fall recruitment knowing little to nothing about...
http://cooglife.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/topvintagearticle.mp4 While Houston is known for its unique array of vintage clothing stores and boutiques, a typical complaint heard from avid shoppers is how overpriced they are. While that ’90s “Clueless” dress is your style or that ’80s tie-dye T-shirt would be perfect...
Seasons in Houston are a controversial issue, and while Trader Joe’s has already started to stock their pumpkin-spice everything, temperatures are sitting comfortably around 90 degrees. All that I can think of is evenings wrapped in a blanket consuming warm things, but it’s far more likely to rain than for my yearly...
On behalf of Cooglife and CoogRadio, I want to welcome all freshmen to a new semester at the University of Houston. I want to start off by introducing myself. I go by the name “Rue.” I am a senior, and I am majoring in media production. My first two years of college were not what I expected them to be. I had my fun,...

Created by Rihanna and Kendo, the cosmetic company behind brands such as Kat Von D and BITE, Fenty Beauty features edgy, innovative products and inclusive shades. Although not Rihanna’s first foray in...
I still remember my first phone. My parents made me wait until high school to get one, so I barely missed out on the experience of having a flip phone. Instead, I had an HTC Rhyme, a purple smartphone marketed toward women whose most noteworthy feature was the charm it came with that you could plug into your headphone...
Perhaps one of the only financial silver linings of being a college student is the heaps of student discounts you can get with just a flash of your student ID (or that student email you were given ages ago that you really should’ve remembered). When it seems like almost every retailer is going to give you some sort of...
There’s something stirring deep within the subconscious of Brand New frontman Jesse Lacey on their 2017 LP, “Science Fiction.” Possibly the last album from the Levittown, New York quartet who burst onto the emo scene in the late ’90s, “Science Fiction” feels like a natural capstone to one of rock music’s biggest...
