Dixie= “Utah Tech”?!?

I still like Zion State better.

JUST IN: The Dixie State University Name Recommendation Committee voted in favor of renaming the university Utah Polytechnic State University.

That name will move forward to the Dixie State University Board of Trustees for a vote there. https://t.co/2tHBKplsZd

They said they wanted a name that says “big time”… idk if this is it.

I guess Zion State had too much religious connotation?

Wouldn’t Texas tech, Virginia tech, Georgia tech, show that can be “big time”?

Utah Polytechnic State University is a terrible name for a school, IMO.

Utah Tech is better than UPSU, but...

but that's what SLCC was called back when I was a teenager so maybe confusing

Virginia tech essentially has the same name but goes by Virginia tech.

I thought it was UVU wasn't it? Or was it both?

6/14/21 11:12am

Not that I was aware of, but maybe.

I think UVU was Utah Trade Tech (that's what my resident expert that grew up in Utah County in the 60s said)

In the 80s it was Utah Technical College/Salt Lake, and in Orem
