Secretary Arne Duncan Kevin Phu entered the I Am What I Learn video contest because he wants to inspire people. "I always knew music
was a special way of inspiring people so I chose to write my own song for
this contest. My hope is that anyone who watches my video and listens to my
song will understand my message. A message stressing the... importance of
education and how education is the building block to a successful future."
