[edit] Official title

Some years ago (around 1980), the Michigan legislature passed a bill that said that residents were officially called "Michiganians". Anybody have any information on the date of this?

Sounds apocryphal. State publications describe both terms and do not indicate any "official" preference for either. [1]. Interestingly, this page has a link labeled as "Famous Michiganders" that links to this page and to this page, which are titled "Some Famous Michiganians". And this also explicitly addresses the question. older≠wiser 01:38, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
