Take the light rail all the way to the end and walk about 5 minutes to the greyhound station.

And watch your stuff. A coworker 10 or 15 years ago had all his stuff stolen when he first moved up. I don't know what its like around there now but I have to imagine that bus stations are natural targets for thieves looking for easy marks carrying nice stuff. The busline's website might have some advice and options for you.

Signs in the either Airport terminal will direct you to the Hiawatha (Line No. 55) train. Get off the train at Hennepin and walk from 5th Street to 12th. The station is a block or two off Hennepin on Hawthorne Avenue. The fare will either be 1.50 or 2.00 depending on the time of day.
The station should be OK, but that area is the main place where the City's homeless congregrate. I.E.; Don't let a panhandler distract you while someone else gets your wallet.

I actually went to metrotransit.org and plotted out the schedule from the airport. You'll want to take the LRT to the warehouse district stop and walk 3 1/2 blocks on 1st avenue.
