Welcome to the Eastern Echo Podcast.

Here’s Matt with the news!

Matt McFarlin: In news this week, Eastern Michigan University hosts its 12th annual Digital Marketing Workshop with theme 'hybrid marketing', Latinx Student Association at EMU showcases culture through music and food, and Materials unlimited in Ypsilanti closes after 50 years.

On Nov. 18, EMU is hosting its 12th annual Digital Marketing Workshop from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Student Center. This event is open to the community and any EMU student.

The workshop will include breakfast, lunch, two panels of experienced marketing professionals and a chance to network with other people. Anyone interested can register on Eventbrite for a special student rate of  $7.50.

Next up in our series on cultural organizations on campus is Latinx Student Association or LSA at EMU. 

EMU’s LSA showcases culture through music and food. LSA’s members want EMU students to know that the organization is not just for Latino and Hispanic students, but is open for any students who are interested in learning more about different culture. 

On Oct.27, LSA is hosting a Dia Los Muertos event in Big Bob’s Lake House from 7-9 p.m. in collaboration with Campus Life and the Multicultural Greek Council.

Dia De los Muertos is a celebration of life and death, which LSA will be celebrating with other students by learning the history of the holiday through games, music, food, activities and more.  

In other news, Ypsilanti staple Materials Unlimited is closing after 50 years. The store, which originated on Main Street in Ann Arbor, is having a closing sale for 25% off of everything. 

Materials Unlimited sells antiques of all kind, including lamps, furniture, doors, craft supplies and more. 

After a lifetime of loving and selling antiques, owner Renold Lowe is now planning to retire and continue his passion of making art. 

This segment was reported by Anyara Zapata, Layla McMurtrie and Krista Kangas, scripted by Mariah Taylor, and produced by Jordan Boyd.
