...outcome of the butterfly competitions show a Harvard squad on the brink of establishing northeastern dominance in those events. Barton and Kathleen McCloskey finished one-two in both the 50 and 100-yd. races, with Barton establishing team records in both events and breaking her own New England record...

Along with thousands of students throughout the world, I looked towards Harvard as an example of what a great university is.
