Bill to change Dixie State University s name clears Utah House committee

Bill to change Dixie State University’s name clears Utah House committee Marjorie Cortez © Ravell Call, Deseret News An entrance sign at Dixie State University is pictured in St. George on Sunday, Oct.11, 2020. SALT LAKE CITY Dixie State University took another step toward a name change Wednesday after the House Education Committee voted 12-2 in support of HB278. Sponsored by Rep. Kelly Miles, R-Ogden, the bill would require the university’s trustees, in consultation with the Utah Board of Higher Education, to select and recommend a new name for the four-year institution in St. George. It also would require the Legislature’s Education Interim Committee to prepare and consider legislation incorporating the new name for the institution in Utah Code, which suggests the process will not be finalized during the current session that ends March 5.

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.
