<p>The college S2 will attend in Aug. (also where I attended) requires a swim test and a swim class if the test is not passed. I had never heard the story when I was a student but the tour guide on S2’s visit said that one of the first Chancellors of the college had a step-daughter who drowned at a young age. He was so distraught that he declared no student would ever graduate from that college without knowing how to swim. One hundred years later, they’re still taking the swim test.</p>
