No, that is not true.
According to the definition in rule 2-18, a half swing shall be called a strike if the barrel head of the bat passes the batter's front hip. Previously the rule stated "the front edge of home plate" but that neglected the batter's position in the box.
The words in blue are verbatim from the 2011 NCAA Baseball Preseason supplement, and it can also be found in the current rule book. This rule definition was discussed at the annual meetings.
