Lauren Bailey, NY K 2015, was among four students at the University of Rochester that was profiled as a graduating member of the class of 2015 for “making their mark and making the most of their collegiate experience.” Bailey is graduating with a degree in chemical engineering and has been a prolific swimmer during her time at Rochester. She was named the women’s Liberty League Swimmer of the Year for three straight years, winning four individual events and playing a key role as the team won its sixth straight league championship in December. She set University records for the 100 butterfly, 200 butterfly, 200 freestyle, 200 individual medley and is a part of all the record- holding relay teams.
