Facing change, the retiring teachers, a letter to the high school graduates, what rural Minnesota offers, and the money woes of NPR.
A prom is just a dance, on Carl Platou, North Dakotans want property taxes, preventing Alzheimer’s, and getting things done in Granite Falls.
Whey do we stink at science, Oil Patch dispatches, Sedaris under scrutiny, Bye Bye Bernie, the Reddit people come through again.

What choice would you change, the world’s largest plastic building is in Minnesota, tears in the news, and people who do good by doing wrong,
After the flood, what might have been in the foreclosure crisis, Alex Balluff beat the odds, Yertle the Socialist, and fighting hatred with music.
