She was an Olympic swimmer I think who attended U of D. Maybe 1952 or 1956?? I very vaguely remember something during the Olympics about a woman from U of D during a "where are they now" feature. I could look it up, but I'm too lazy. I hope she's still with us.

I looked it up. She won a silver medal at 1956 Olympics in Melbourne. She attended U of D and competed for the Detroit Athletic Club. She is 86 yrs old.

Right, and to be clear, was a student at U of D at the time of the Olympics. I just learned about her recently. U of D didn't have a women's swimming team, so she didn't compete for the school, but I still think it's kinda cool.
