The UB community got down and dirty on May 2 for Oozefest, one of UB’s most popular traditions and one of the largest mud volleyball tournaments in the country. Oozefest started in 1984 as a way to help students de-stress before exams and bring the UB community together. Today, anyone can play at Oozefest, including students from UB and other schools, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of the university. University Communications photographer Meredith Forrest Kulwicki was there to document all the muddy fun.
