Dwight Messner, Grand Forks, letter: ‘Arrive a guest. Leave a Legend’ 
With unveiling of the North Dakota Tourism’s new marketing campaign slogan for 2012: “Arrive a guest. Leave a Legend.” I have to say, I think it must have been written only after the recent incident where a homeless man from Aspen, Colo., came to North Dakota to work in the Oil Patch and ended up in the Williams County jail after he arrived.

Cory Christofferson, Hamar, N.D., letter: Dalrymple benefits from ag, oil booms

Bev Benda, Grand Forks, letter: 'Walkability' is the sign of a healthy city
Like Ed Weber, I am also appalled at the city’s decision to ban walkers from the Alerus Center.
As a health professional who strives to assist people in their wellness programs, I see this as a barrier to success. “Go somewhere else” is government at its worst and unsupportive of our citizens’ desire for fitness.

OUR OPINION: On letters, nickname and otherwise
At the Herald, we’re guessing we’ve received 50 to 100 pieces of mail, enough so that we’ve devoted several editorial pages to the topic of UND's Fighting Sioux nickname and even used Page A5 for extra letters one day last week.
And here’s another guess: The letters are running about 6-to-1 or 7-to-1 against the board’s actions and in support of the nickname.

C.T. Marhula, Grand Forks, letter: Letters should include writers’ affiliations

I was visiting with a friend the other day about the upcoming community events in honor of National Coming Out Day, which is today. He asked me why I felt the need to celebrate a day to “flaunt” who I was in public and “force” people to come out
