Dr. Grynaviski, Associate Professor in WSU's Political Science Department, will explore how the number of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives was set, when the number was set, and why this number has not changed in recent history. He will also reflect
on the possible impacts these numbers have on governance and the relationship of representatives to their constituents, and how Michigan's representation has been impacted.</div>
