Ypsilanti business leaders discuss First Fridays

Created in 2013, First Fridays Ypsilanti is designed to connect local artists and businesses by hosting an evening -- on every First Friday of the month -- with all businesses downtown and Depot Town participating in art and music events, restaurant specials and gallery openings. First Fridays are held April through December.

Joshua Nieman sits down with Eastern Michigan University's new College of Arts and Sciences Dean, Carol Bishop Mills, and talks about bravery, bullying, life in Florida and more.
