I am Jeffrey Phillips and I am 45 years old and returning to school in order to attain a teaching education degree. I have been married to Robin for 15 years and have two children. My first child is Matthew who is 14 years old and Clare who has just turned 5 years old.

My educational philosophy is that all children deserve a right to an education that is not based on one's income level. Today's civil rights issue for me is in the field of education. The wealthy and the poor should be treated and put on equal footing with regards to a student's education. As a country we all need to help one another to attain a quality education program. I will be sharing my talents and insights with my students in order to show them that change can be possible. I want to be able to give back to my community and help in areas that are considered under privileged. My goal is to attain as much equality in education as possible between all social classes without regards to where one resides.

If you would like to contact me or ask a question on any subject matter, I look forward to your comments, please feel free to e mail me at the following address; www.jfphill@ilstu.edu
