...success from this year comes from our team goals and because of the way that we decided to swim,” Rathgeber said. “The team goals and the hard work my teammates were putting in made me work harder in the pool.”Beyond his athletic prowess, Rathgeber also made his presence felt outside of the pool. His First-Team Academic All-American selection speaks to his successes in the classroom, but Rathgeber also excelled as a captain and gained the respect and admiration of his teammates...

...Applications to Harvard soared to a record 27,462 this year, eclipsing the previous record of 22,955 set last year. Only 7.1 percent of the applicant pool was admitted to the Class of 2012 in April, the lowest admission rate in the history of the College. When the admissions year concludes at the end of June, the yield on admitted candidates is expected to be about 76 percent (close to last year’s 78 percent).
