Miss Central State University
Teeya R. Skipper
Teeya Skipper is the daughter of Emma Lee Martin Skipper. She is a graduating senior from Chicago, IL majoring in Music Performance with a concentration in Voice. She loves to sing/perform and this is a passion that she could not live without. She enjoys engaging in any activity that makes her smile because she craves laughter. Teeya is adventurous and enjoys all challenges from games and sports, to mentally riddled conversations. She is a member of Mu Phi Epsilon International Professional Music Fraternity and the founder of the B.U student organization, which is an organization for young women, that encourages them to reject who people want you to be and to accept who they truly are.
Upon graduation she plans to take off in pursuit of performing on as many stages, speaking into as many microphones, and changing as many lives as she can. Her philosophy is, “Don’t look for me in the paper because by the time you read it I’ll be on to something new, but look for me in the wind because it never stops moving but it is always with you.”
As Miss Central State University, Teeya plans to focus on the concept of being oneself. She wants the students to capitalize on what they are good at which will birth more student leaders, increase enrollment, stabilize retention and bring about a sense of Marauder Pride. During her reign she wants the students to understand that being themselves is not a problem but rather the solution.
