Skull and Bones, The Order, Order 322 or The Brotherhood of

Death, is an undergraduate senior secret student society at Yale

University, New Haven, Connecticut. It is the oldest senior class

and society at Yale.

The society's alumni organization, the Russell Trust Association,

owns the society's real estate and oversees the organization. The

society is known informally as "Bones", and members are known

as "Bonesmen".

Skull and Bones was founded in 1832 after a dispute between

Yale debating societies Linonia, Brothers in Unity, and the Calliopean Society over that season's Phi

Beta Kappa awards. It wasco-founded by William Huntington Russell and Alphonso Taft as "the

Order of the Skull and Bones". The society's assets are managed by the society's alumni

organization, the Russell Trust Association, incorporated in 1856 and named after the Bones co-

founder. The association was founded by Russell and Daniel Coit Gilman, a Skull and Bones

member, and later president of the University of California, first president of Johns Hopkins

University, and the founding president of the Carnegie Institution. The first extended description of

Skull and Bones, published in 1871 by Lyman Bagg in his bookFour Years at Yale, noted that "the

mystery now attending its existence forms the one great enigmawhich college gossip never tires of

discussing." Brooks Mather Kelley attributed the interest in Yale senior societies to the fact that

under class men members of then freshman, sophomore, and junior class societies returned to

campus the following years and could share information about society rituals, while graduating

seniors were, with their knowledge of such, at least a step removed from campus life.

Skull and Bones selects new members among students every spring as part of Yale University's

"Tap Day", and has done so since 1879. Since the society's inclusion of women in the early 1990s,

Skull and Bones selects fifteen men and women of the junior class to join the society. Skull and

Bones "taps" those that it views as campus leaders and other notable figures for its membership.

The Skull and Bones Hall is otherwise known as the

Tomb.

The building was built in three phases, the first wing was built in

1856, the second wing in 1903, and Davis-designed Neo-Gothic

towers were added to the rear garden in 1912. The front and side

facades are of Portland brownstone in an Egypto-Doric style. The

1912 tower additions created a small enclosed courtyard in the

rear of the building, designed by Evarts Tracy and Edgerton

Swartwout of Tracy and Swartwout, New York.

Evarts was not a Bonesman, but his paternal grandmother, Martha

Sherman Evarts, and maternal grandmother, Mary Evarts, were

the sisters of William Maxwell Evarts, an 1837 Bonesman.

The architectural attribution of the original hall is in dispute. The

architect was possibly Alexander Jackson Davis or Henry Austin.

Architectural historian Patrick Pinnell includes an in depth discussion of the dispute over the identity of the original architect in his 1999 Yale campus history. Pinnell speculates that the re-use of the Davis towers in 1911 suggests Davis's role in the original building and, conversely, Austin was responsible for the architecturally similar brownstone Egyptian Revival Grove Street Cemetery gates, built in 1845. Pinnell also discusses the "Tomb's" aesthetic place in relation to its neighbours, including the Yale University Art Gallery. In the late 1990s, New Hampshire landscape architects Saucier and Flynn designed the wrought iron fence that currently surrounds a portion of the complex. The society owns and manages Deer Island, an island retreat on the St Lawrence River. Alexandra Robbins, author of a book on Yale secret societies, wrote:

The forty-acre retreat is intended to give Bonesmen an opportunity to "get together and rekindle old friendships." A century ago the island sported tennis courts and its

softball fields were surrounded by rhubarb plants and gooseberry bushes.

Catboats waited on the lake. Stewards catered elegant meals. But

although each new Skull and Bones member still visits Deer Island, the

place leaves something to be desired. "Now it is just a bunch of burned-out

stone buildings," a patriarch sighs. "It's basically ruins." Another Bones-

man says that to call the island "rustic" would be to glorify it. "It's a dump,

but it's beautiful." Skull and Bones membership developed a reputation in

association with the "Power Elite". Regarding the qualifications for

membership Lanny Davis wrote in the 1968 Yale yearbook:

If the society

had a good year, this is what the "ideal" group will consist of:

a football

captain; a Chairman of the Yale Daily News; a conspicuous radical; a

Whiffenpoof; a swimming captain; a notorious drunk with a 94 average; a

film-maker; a political columnist; a religious group leader; a Chairman of

the Lit; a foreigner; a ladies' man with two motorcycles; an ex-service man;

a negro, if there are enough to go around; a guy nobody else in the group

have heard of. Like other Yale senior societies, Skull and Bones membership was almost exclusively limited to white Protestant males for much of its history. While Yale itself had exclusionary policies directed at particular ethnic and religious groups, the senior societies were even more exclusionary. While some Catholics were able to join such groups, Jews were more often not. Some of these excluded groups eventually entered Skull and Bones by means of sports, through the society's practice of tapping standout athletes. Star football players included the first Jewish (Al Hessberg, class of 1938) and African-American ( Levi Jackson, class of 1950, who turned down the invitation for the Berzelius Society) students to be tapped for Skull and Bones.

Yale became coeducational in 1969, yet Skull and Bones remained fully male until

1992. The Bones class of 1971's attempt to tap women for membership was

opposed by Bones alumni, who dubbed them the "bad club" and quashed their

attempt. "The issue", as it came to be called by Bones-men was debated for

decades.

The class of 1991 tapped seven female members for membership in the next

year's class, causing conflict with their own alumni association, the Russell Trust

The Trust changed the locks on the Tomb and the Bones-men instead met in the

Manuscript Society building. A mail-in vote by members decided 368-320 to

permit women in the society, but a group of alumni led by William F. Buckley

obtained a temporary restraining order to block the move, arguing that a formal

change in bylaws was needed. Other alumni, such as John Kerry and R. Inslee

Clark, Jr., spoke out in favor of admitting women. The dispute was highlighted on

an editorial page of The New York Times. A second alumni vote, in October 1991,

agreed to accept the Class of 1992, and the lawsuit was dropped.

Judith Ann Schiff, Chief Research Archivist at the Yale University Library, has

written:

"The names of its members weren't kept secret — that was an innovation of

the 1970s — but its meetings and practices were." While resourceful researchers

could assemble member data from these original sources, in 1985, an anonymous

source leaked rosters to Antony C. Sutton. This membership information was kept

privately for over 15 years, as Sutton feared that the photocopied pages could

somehow identify the member who leaked it. He wrote a book on the group,

America's Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull and Bones.

The information was finally reformatted as an appendix in the book Fleshing out

Skull and Bones, a compilation edited by Kris Millegan and published in 2003.

The Germanic Thule Society, which brought and funded Hitler's Nazi SS

Stormtroopers and Gestapo rise to power, was the Sister Organization of the Skull

and Bones Society at Yale, which brought the same vile Nazi League Hitler

funding Bush Family to power, to both accelerate the growth of the Germanic CIA

and the fast tracked Gestapo Department of Homeland Security, with its SS units

and FEMA Camps, ready to focus as Concentration Camps to Political order.

Among prominent alumni are former President and Supreme Court Justice William Howard Taft (a founder's son); former Presidents George H. W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush; Supreme Court Justices Morrison R. Waite and Potter Stewart; James Jesus Angleton, "mother of the Central Intelligence Agency"; Henry Stimson, U.S. Secretary of War (1940-1945); U.S. Secretary of Défense Robert A. Lovett, who directed the Korean War, William B. Washburn, Governor of Massachusetts; and Henry Luce, founder and publisher of Time, Life, Fortune, and Sports Illustrated magazines.

John Kerry, U.S. Secretary of State and former U.S. Senator; Stephen A. Schwarzman,

founder of the Blackstone Group; Austan Goolsbee, Chairman of Barack Obama's Council

of Economic Advisers; Harold Stanley, co-founder of Morgan Stanley; and Frederick W.

Smith, founder of FedEx, are all reported to be members.

One legend is that the numbers in the society's emblem ("322") represent "founded in '32,

2nd corps", referring to a first Corps in an unknown German university. Others suggest that

322 refers to the death of Demosthenes and that documents in the Tomb have purportedly

been found dated to "Anno Demostheni".

Members are assigned nicknames (e.g., "Long Devil", the tallest member, and "Boaz", a

varsity football captain, or "Sherrife" prince of future). Many of the chosen names are drawn

from literature (e.g., "Hamlet", "Uncle Remus"), religion, and myth. The banker Lewis

Lapham passed on his nickname, "Sancho Panza", to the political adviser Tex McCrary.

Averell Harriman was "Thor", Henry Luce was "Baal", McGeorge Bundy was "Odin", and

George H. W. Bush was "Magog".

In the 2004 U.S. Presidential election, both the Democratic and Republican nominees were

alumni. George W. Bush wrote in his autobiography, "In my senior year I joined Skull and

Bones, a secret society; so secret, I can't say anything more." When asked what it meant

that he and Bush were both Bonesmen, former Presidential candidate John Kerry said,

"Not much, because it's a secret."

The society's current class meets every Thursday and Sunday night during their senior year.

Skull and Bones has a reputation for stealing keepsakes from other Yale societies or from

campus buildings; society members reportedly call the practice "crooking" and strive to out

do each other's "crooks". The society has been accused of possessing the stolen skulls of

Martin Van Buren, Geronimo, and Pancho Villa. The group Skull and Bones is featured in conspiracy theories, which claim that the society plays a role in a globalist/corporatist conspiracy for world control. Theorists such as Alexandra Robbins suggest that Skull and Bones is a branch of the Illuminati, or that Skull and Bones itself controls the Central Intelligence Agency. Books written about the society include economist Antony C. Sutton's America's Secret Establishment:

An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones and Kris Millegan's 2003 Fleshing Out Skull and Bones.

Skull and Bones has been satirized from time to time in the Doonesbury

comic strips by Garry Trudeau, Yale graduate and Scroll and Key member.

There are overt references, especially in 1980 and December 1988, with

reference to George H. W. Bush, and again when the society first admitted

women.

In The Simpsons, the character Montgomery Burns attended Yale and

was a member of Skull and Bones.

In Family Guy Season 5, Episode 16 "No Chris Left Behind" Carter

Pewterschmidt is revealed to be a member of the Society and briefly

admits Chris into the society until he asks to attend his old school.

In American Dad! Season 2, Episode 10 "Bush Comes To Dinner",

George W. Bush arrives to dinner at Stan's home. He is distracted by

Roger and handed 2 alcoholic drinks; as Bush is portrayed as a recovering

alcoholic he then runs around town performing zany antics and "doing the

Skull and Bones", which involves a wacky dance and melody.

In the 1960s Batman episode " Fine Finny Fiends " (season 1, episode 33), during a party of Gotham City millionaires at Stately Wayne Manor, a guest references a painting of a man in a Yale sweater, to which Aunt Harriet remarks that it is Bruce Wayne's great-grandfather, and that he founded Skull and Bones.

The Skulls (2000) and The Skulls II (2002) films are based on the conspiracy theories surrounding Skull and Bones. A third film, The Skulls III (2004), is based on the first woman to be "tapped" to join the society.

The society is also referenced in F. Scott Fitzgerald's This Side of Paradise (1920).

In the 2008 episode of Gossip Girl entitled " New Haven Can Wait ", Chuck Bass is recruited as a possible Skull and Bones prospect while visiting the Yale campus.

The Veronica Mars finale, " The Bitch is Back ", describes the founding of a college secret society by a former member of Yale's Skull and Bones.

SKULL and BONES 322 Worse than the Ku Klux Klan?

Both of the "major" 2004 presidential candidates were inductedinto one of the country's most infamous secret societies, Skull Bones at Yale University back in the 1960s. Just think about the odds—out of approximately 800 Bonesmen alive today, two of them ran against each other for president of the United States—out of a population of more than 300 million people That's quite a coincidence, don't you think?

Founded in 1832, The Order of Skull and Bones (formally known as the Brotherhood of Death ) is Yale's oldest secret society.

Headquartered in a "windowless tomb" on High Street, Skull and Bones is only open to 15 Yale seniors, who are "tapped" join in the spring of their junior year.

"Those on the inside know it as The Order. Others have known it for more than 150 years as Chapter 322 of a German secret society. More formally, for legal purposes, The Order was incorporated as, The Russell Trust in 1856. It was also once known as the 'Brotherhood of Death'. Those who make light of it, or want to make fun of it, call it 'Skull & Bones', or just plain 'Bones'." "So, according to Skull and Bones lore . . . in 322 B.C., a Greek orator died. When he died, the goddess Eulogia, the goddess, whom Skull and Bones called the goddess of eloquence, arose to the heavens and didn't happen to come back down until 1832, when she happened to take up residence in the tomb of Skull and Bones. Now Skull and Bones does everything in deference to this goddess. They have songs or . . . sacred anthems that they sing when they are encouraged to steal things, some remarkably valuable items, supposedly, they are said to be bringing back gifts to the goddess. They begin each session in the tomb, and they meet twice weekly by unveiling a sort of a guilt shrine to Eulogia. That's the point of the society. They call themselves the Knights of Eulogia. That's where the 322 comes in."

According to rumour, initiates engage in strange bonding rituals such as lying in a coffin and reciting their sexual history in front of all the members. The object of such rituals is to create intense loyalty among members of the society. Some critics allege that these rituals contain satanic overtones. George W. Bush's grandfather, Prescott, and fellow Bonesmen reportedly robbed Geronimo's grave and stole the Apache chief's skull and some of his personal effects at the Apache Indian Prisoner of War Cemetery in 1918.

Upon graduation, quite a few former Bonesmen use their bonds of power and influence to make their way up through the ranks of America's power elite, many in the area of foreign policy. A select few Bonesmen have parlayed their Skull and Bones connections to make a play for the White House (believe it or not, even President William Howard Taft was a Bonesman, as well as George H.W. Bush and his son, George W. Bush).

Other prominent Bonesmen include James L. Buckley (U.S. Senator), William F. Buckley (columnist), John Chafee (U.S. Senator and Secretary of the Navy), John Sherman Cooper (U.S. Senator and member of the Warren Commission), John Daniels (founder of Archer Daniels Midland), Paul Giamatti (actor), Pierre Jay (first
