Scheel: Chancellor Shirvani must go 
Higher education is a big business in North Dakota, and just like any business that runs well in multiple locations, there needs to be a strong working relationship, honesty and trust in the dialogue between the State Board of Higher Education “corporate office” in Bismarck and the 11 institutions around our great state.

Kathy Lundeen, Grand Forks, N.D., letter: Authorities take away more and more choices
Regarding the recent story about certain snacks being removed from concession stands (“Mixing in a salad — whether you noticed or not,” Page A1, March 25)

Katie Olson, East Grand Forks, Minn., letter: N.D. lawmakers show cruelty toward women
Even though I don’t live in North Dakota, it saddens me to see that Gov. Jack Dalrymple signed the anti-abortion bills.

Craig Hertsgaard, Walcott Township, N.D., letters: Diversion foes ask neighbors to speak out
Can you see the neighbors? That was the question we’d ask when there was a snowstorm. If you couldn’t see the outline of their trees or their yard light at night, it wasn’t safe to drive.

Ken Chruszch, Karlstad, Minn., letters: Facts don’t support calls for gun control
After the horrible tragedy in Newtown, Conn., the media and liberal politicians didn’t even show enough respect to give the town time to mourn.

Gunhild Schmidt, Lakota, N.D., letters: U.S. must reopen door to God
I wonder if those who were members of Congress at the time of the removal of the Ten Commandments, prayer or mention of God in schools see their mistakes.

Karren Brown, Grand Forks ND, letters Gun buyers pay a violent tribute
Another American tragedy: Just one day after 20 little children were shot to death in their classrooms in Connecticut, people rushed out to buy the same kind of guns that were used in the killing.

Niles Eastman, Fargo, letters: ‘Extend middle-class tax cuts now’
I would like to provide some more context to the issue of the “fiscal cliff” — specifically, how the event relates to all Americans.

Glenn Rost, Park River, N.D., letter: How to meet obligations, pay down debt
"I have been waiting patiently for someone to suggest ways that our government can meet its obligations and reduce deficits while causing the least amount of pain. I have yet to hear solutions from either side that seem both fair and effective."

Mary Olson, Grand Forks, letter: Union helped write Crystal’s success story
"Bob did whatever it took to keep the plants running. And he was not alone: Other American Crystal employees have accomplished tasks that took incredible courage and perseverance to complete. The loyalty and determination of these union workers has played a crucial role in the success of the company."

Al Olson, Chanhassen, Minn., letter: Lessons in politics from America’s ‘best governed state’
"For years, I have been telling friends and colleagues here in Minnesota and elsewhere that North Dakota is the best governed state and why."

Vicki Voldal Rosenau, Valley City, N.D., letters: Where is it written, ‘Thou shalt frack’?
“The Herald’s Dec. 2 story on U.S. Rep.-elect Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., leaves me wondering if every person who voted for him really knew what was in the whole package (‘“God put it there for us,”’ Page C2).”
By Vicki Voldal Rosenau , December 04, 2012
Richard Shafer, Grand Forks, letters: God sides with oil barons in Cramer’s view
"It is frightening that Kevin Cramer, our soon-to-be-sworn-in U.S. congressman, announced that he will let his religion rather than science guide him on energy policy decisions."
By Richard Shafer , December 04, 2012
Marlan Haakenson, Bismarck, letter: Allow petitions at The Ralph
What would Ralph Engelstad do? The board that manages the building Ralph built should ask themselves that question. The answer is, Ralph would be circulating the petitions inside as well as outside the building. They are dishonoring him and should be fired.
