CARBONDALE, Ill. -- Jeremy Phillips, a graduate student in political science at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, earned a fellowship stipend from the Division of Social and Economic Sciences of the National Science Foundation.
Phillips will apply the fellowship to attending the Political Networks Conference and Workshops at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan.
