City council asks Utah Legislature to reject Dixie State University name change © Provided by KUTV Salt Lake City The Utah Senate is planning to hear the bill that would allow Dixie State University to move forward with a name change. The Enterprise City Council passed a resolution Thursday urging the state legislature to reject any attempt to remove the word Dixie from the school s name. They say they ve heard both sides of the issues, but argue the name has historic value to the area. The school is an institution which many of their ancestors sacrificed a great deal to build and develop. Should be recognized as an important factor in considering the name, the resolution states.

House committee votes in favor of bill to change the name of Dixie State University

| Updated: 12:21 p.m. After hearing from dozens of people on both sides of the debate during more than an hour of public comment, a Utah House committee voted 12-2 Wednesday in favor of an effort to change the name of Dixie State University. On one side of the issue are proponents of the name change, who say they’re worried about the impacts on students of the name “Dixie,” which has connections to the Confederacy and the slave-owning American South. In southwest Utah, 19th century pioneers grew cotton, and some of the area’s early settlers were former slave owners.

Wait, What Happened? A Timeline Of The Year 2020 In Utah

KUER Yes, 2020 was the year of COVID. But here’s a timeline of the other interesting stuff that happened in Utah last year, too. January: Impeachment, Sundance and Condomgate Jon Reed The Sundance Film Festival drew more than 100,000 people to Park City Utah. The year began with the end of the controversial Southern Red Sands Mine project in Kanab, and by the middle of January there was just one thing at the top of people’s minds: Impeachment. It was also this month that the Utah Department of Health faced its first crisis of the year: Condomgate. Gov. Gary Herbert quickly blocked the HIV prevention campaign that sent out thousands of condoms with sex-positive, Utah-themed packaging. But his plan to protect Utahns from such tastlessness wasn’t entirely effective full sets of the profalactics with messages like “Greatest Sex on Earth and “Explore Utah’s Caves” appeared on Ebay days later.

Dixie State U wants to change school name, local coalition starts fundraiser to keep it

The Dixie State University Board of Trustees recently voted to drop “Dixie” from the school’s name, prompting a local organization to set up a fundraiser in opposition to the decision. According to FOX-13 in Salt Lake City, Utah, the board’s decision came after a consulting firm’s study showed negative connotations associated with the moniker. For example, the report indicated 56 percent of “out-of-state recruiting areas believe the name will have a negative impact on the institution’s general brand,” 52 percent of those “outside of the state feel uncomfortable wearing [DSU] apparel outside of Utah” and 52 percent of recent out-of-state alumni “feel the name has a negative impact on the brand.”
