Press Release Date: 07-20-2006

Southeastern Oklahoma State University has named Nolbert Reyna as the Student Activities Specialist at the University.

Reyna graduated from DeLeon (Texas) High School, where he played tennis and participated in a number of organizations.

He is a graduate of Tarleton State University with a degree in International Business. Reyna was heavily involved in activities on campus and was a member of the Executive Board of Tarleton Alternative Transportation. He was instrumental in starting this program, which was a designated driving program for the students.

Reyna said he has decided to switch careers, having started out in the banking business.

“I was involved in banking all through college,” Reyna said. “After graduation, I was a full-time Mortgage Loan Officer Trainee and I realized banking wasn’t the career path for me.’’

Reyna said one of his goals is to increase and improve Greek life at Southeastern. He was president of Kappa Alpha and treasurer of the Interfraternity Council at TSU. He was also vice president of the American Marketing Association, orientation advisor, Duck Camp Leader, involved in the Student Programming Association and a member of the marching band, jazz band and wind ensemble. He was also a cheerleader for one semester.

Director of Student Life Camille Phelps said, “In addition to traditional academics, a college education also includes meeting new people, learning about their cultures, and being exposed to new ideas. We are thrilled to have Nolbert on campus and working with us.”

Reyna said, “I will serve as the Student Activities Specialist and Greek advisor at Southeastern and be involved in all activities on campus. I will be the go-to person for all organizations.

“I am here to help. That’s really my job and I’m looking forward to it.”
