UC Santa Cruz "Fiat Slug" Banana Slugs Crest Ringer Tee

This UC Santa Cruz design is our nod to Pulp Fiction fans, but the ā€œFiat Slugā€ logo was a campus favorite long before the film. UCSC students observed the slow-moving, distinct creatures in the Redwoods, and thought the banana slug would be an ironic symbol for the school. Then-student Marc Ratner designed the ā€œFiat Slugā€ logo in the 1980s, mimicking a traditional university seal, as students campaigned in earnest for the banana slug to replace the stuffier sea lion mascot. UCSC administrators adopted the change in 1986 – let there be slug, indeed.
