The Paisano (Spanish for "fellow countryman") is the independent student-run newspaper of the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA).

Because it is student-run and independent from University administration, The Paisano is written completely by unpaid volunteers, with advertisements helping to support the costs associated with printing and distributing.

The Paisano won a gold medal in 2000 from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association.

[5] In 2005 SA Current magazine named The Paisano the Best College Newspaper in San Antonio.

[6] The office for the newspaper is located at 14526 Roadrunner Way, across the street from the Main UTSA campus.
