Blankenship was a 2002 graduate of SOSU with a Bachelor of Arts degree in interpersonal/organizational communication and a minor in leadership. During his tenure as a student at Southeastern he was involved as a student worker for the campus police, computer technician for academic computing and webmaster at the placement office. He also served as assistant director of emergency management for the city of Durant.

One organization that Marlin held membership at was Chi Alpha, a religious organization. After graduation, he continued a career with the emergency management office as well as beginning a position as youth director for his local church. In more recent history, he has ebbed away from working with the youth group to assisting with the younger kids. Also upon graduating, his previous training as an Emergency Medical Technician helped him to be awarded with an accommodation for assisting a man in jeopardy. Marlin is skilled in many areas and is ready to try his talents as an admissions counselor.

Two of Marlin’s favorite things about the university are its friendliness and its vision to be a progressive university. “I’m amazed at the many steps this university is taking to constantly find ways to improve itself. It’s a great university and I’m glad to get the opportunity to build my education and career here.”
