About Slug Gaming

Slug Gaming is UC Santa Cruz’s student run gaming organization. We believe that gaming has created an outlet to bring people together, and provides a space where background, skill, interest, and other aspects of life are not the driving force for the community. We strive to make gaming and esports bigger, from not only the collegiate level, but as a whole. We meet monthly in-person for a community game night and host quarterly intramurals for each game for members to play together in a mini Slug Gaming Tourney called SlugFest. Check our #events channel for upcoming gatherings, games, meetings, and tournaments.
