I AM DIXIE | Wendi Bulkley
Wendi Bulkley attended Dixie State from 1998 to 2001 and graduated with her Associate of Science Degree in Business in 2000. She attend Dixie because of the 300 days of sunshine and the opportunity to live away from home. She received a leadership scholarship as an Ambassador to recruit for Dixie!
While at Dixie, she learned what it mean to have the Dixie Spirit and quickly found the Red Sand deep in her shoes. "It is contagious and my future generations will continue to hear about Dixie and will love the new Trailblazers name and identity. It doesn't matter what we are called," Wendi said. "It's how we feel, what we experience, who we become and it's the relationships that we build at Dixie. I am proud to be an Alum of Dixie State. My kids have all grown up attending the Homecoming Parade, attending the Great Race and the many sporting events. We absolutely love Dixie and will continue to support and serve wherever we can."
