Colgate is the only university in America that requires its students to pass a swim test before they can graduate. With three weeks left in the semester, I still have yet to take mine. Distribution requirements done, majors completed, thesis about to be handed in, and the only thing holding me back from feeling the weight of my diploma in my hands is a few laps and some treading water.
Just one of the things that makes Colgate’Colgate. Though I probably won’t be that enthused when I dive into the pool at 8:00 a.m. on Monday morning.
