Kellogg Community College is offering a two-day class about gerrymandering in October at the North Avenue Campus in Battle Creek.

The purpose of holding this class is to provide an overview of the political process known as gerrymandering so that the general public will get a better understanding of the ins and outs of the issue before Michigan’s general election on Nov. 6.
