Nebraska state nickname

The 1945 Legislature changed the official state name to the “Cornhusker State”. The name is derived from the nickname for the University of Nebraska athletic teams - the "Cornhuskers" - which was coined in 1900 by Charles S. "Cy" Sherman, a sportswriter for the Nebraska State Journal in Lincoln. "Cornhuskers" replaced earlier nicknames, such as "Golden Knights", "Antelopes", and "Bugeaters". The term "cornhusker" comes from the method of harvesting or "husking" corn by hand, which was common in Nebraska before the invention of husking machinery.

Nebraska state song Beautiful Nebraska

Written by: Jim Fras Beautiful Nebraska, peaceful prairieland,

Laced with many rivers, and the hills of sand;Dark green valleys cradled in the earth,Rain and sunshine bring abundant birth.

Beautiful Nebraska, as you look around,You will find a rainbow reaching to the ground;All these wonders by the Master's hand;Beautiful Nebraska land.

We are so proud of this state where we live,There is no place that has so much to give.

Beautiful Nebraska, as you look around,You will find a rainbow reaching to the ground;All these wonders by the Master's hand,Beautiful Nebraska land.

became the state's official song on June 21, 1967.
