Neal Fogelhut

Technical Support Engineer, College of Education/Department of Educational Technology, San Diego State University

Background

Having been raised in the San Francisco Bay Area by middle class Jewish parents, I attended Chico State College and then on to San Diego State by way of various other universities and colleges. I just could not make up my mind.

I hold a Masters Degree from San Diego State University in Curriculum Design, and a California Community College Teaching Credential with which I have taught for several years. I've also got a Federal Broadcast Engineering License, which enabled me to work at various radio and television stations during my undergraduate and graduate years.

As the Engineer for the College of Education/Educational Technology Department and the Instructional Media Labs, I have worked for the College since 1983, and you can usually find me in NE274 making repairs, servicing, or installing any one of a number of kinds of electronic equipment, or trying to debug various network situations. Before coming to work for San Diego State, I was working for various engineering firms as a design engineer and applications systems engineer.

Activities/Interests/Plans

Interest in the field of Education and especially Educational Technology happened years before. As a youngster I enjoyed playing with gadgets, taking things apart, and putting it all together to see if it still worked. My father did not appreciate it when it did not work.

The position I enjoy now fulfills that past years ago enjoyment.

When not working for the University, I enjoy being with my family my wife Lynn and two sons, Max and Benny. I also enjoy sailing, cycling, and traveling with my family.

There is probably more, but my fingers just gave out!
