My name
is Paul Schvaneveldt
(pronounced Swan-a-velt).
I have been a faculty member
in the Department of Child
and Family Studies for 16 years.
It is a great place
to work and I love what I
do.
Growing up, I
lived in many places
including Minnesota, North Carolina,
and Utah.
I really enjoyed the
beaches in North Carolina
and love Utah’s mountains.
I enjoy
spending time with my family
and doing
activities together.
My entire family
lived in Ecuador a few
years ago while I was a
Fulbright Scholar there.
My children had the
experience (and adventure)
of living in a developing
country and experiencing a
new culture.
While in Ecuador, we
had the opportunity to
volunteer in orphanages
taking care of children. It
was a great experience and
we loved working with these
children.
I
really enjoy working in the
Department of Child and
Family Studies.
I think our biggest
strength is that we
genuinely care about our
students and their success.
I have an open door
policy and would welcome
students to visit at any
time.
