ST. GEORGE — Dixie State University has opened up a survey to the public to provide input to the university's Name Recommendation Committee, said Dixie State University officials. The survey comes after Utah Gov. Spencer Cox recently signed the Dixie State name change bill after the Legislature passed it with some reluctance. Some legislators worried that the name change amounted to 'cancel culture' while others pointed to the negative connotation of the term "Dixie" could hold. The Utah Senate voted 26-3 in favor of the first substitute HB278, and the House of Representatives re-voted after the substitution with a 48-23 vote.
