We estimate the UV continuum slope, β, for 923 galaxies in the range 1 = – 1.382(– 1.830) ± 0.002 (random) ± 0.1 (systematic). We find comparable scatter in β (standard deviation = 0.43) to local dwarf galaxies and 30% larger scatter than z > 2 galaxies. We study the trends of β with redshift and absolute magnitude for binned sub-samples and find a modest color-magnitude relation, dβ/dM = –0.11 ± 0.01, and no evolution in dβ/dM with redshift. A modest increase in dust reddening with redshift and luminosity, ΔE(B – V) ~ 0.1, and a comparable increase in the dispersion of dust reddening at z 2, we find trends that are consistent with previous works; combining our data with the literature in the range 1
