Bill Goetz, North Dakota University System chancellor, Bismarck, column: Column cited rumors, gossip as fact 
Jacobs’ characterizations of me as an “empire builder” and the “ultimate insider” are baseless. His statements that I “could have been fired,” that my “relationship with legislators was never good,” and that I didn’t “discipline” my “subordinates” leave me wondering where Jacobs gets his information.

TOM MILLER COLUMN: It’s time for lawmakers to backpedal on nickname
Al Carlson, other North Dakota state lawmakers and some of the most passionate Fighting Sioux nickname supporters have been playing with fire.
Friday’s news that UND’s acceptance into the Big Sky Conference could be jeopardized by the nickname controversy has taken their cozy, controlled campfire and swept it into a full-blown, raging forest fire.

TOM MILLER: Burggraf piece misses the mark
The court of public opinion didn’t take long to come down with a verdict on the news that former UND hockey player Frank Burggraf had sent a scathing e-mail to Sioux athletic director Brian Faison, chiding the AD’s testimony on a piece of legislation requiring the school to keep its Fighting Sioux nickname and logo.

Jeffrey Weatherly, Grand Forks, column: End runs around hiring process hurt UND
The irony, of course, is that every step of that process was circumvented in Paul LeBel’s own appointment as provost. The further irony, as if one was needed, is that those steps also will not be followed in the appointment of an interim dean of arts and sciences, a person who will serve in that role for at least 18 months.

This little light of mine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

This meeting was leading to nothing but trouble.

ALWAYS IN SEASON: Last week’s birds represented every season in N.D.
Nature has been sending contradictory signals. For those eager for winter, there’s the first report of a snowy owl this season. For those hoping to hang on to fall, there were enormous flocks of migrating geese and swans and lesser numbers of lingering ducks. For those nostalgic for summertime, there were goldfinches. And for those already anticipating spring, there were robins.

There’ve been several bonus days so far in November. Aside from a couple of rainy days, the weather during this year’s firearms deer seasons in Minnesota and North Dakota was nearly perfect, perhaps even too nice for some.

Duaine Espegard, Grand Forks, letter: Herald columnist’s comments went too far
I know the legislators from western North Dakota, and they are every bit as dedicated and committed to service in North Dakota as anyone.
I feel Ryan Bakken owes them and all legislators an apology for this characterization.
