Skull and bones is a secret elite society in the United States, which recruits 15 third-year students from Yale University every year. Its members include many important figures in American politics, business and education, including three American presidents, several federal judges and university presidents. Some people think that skull and bones has long controlled the United States with ulterior motives. However, after investigation, many journalists think that this organization is no different from ordinary university student associations, and similar secret elite organizations exist in almost all top universities.

Skull and bones has extremely mysterious membership rules, and even more daunting is its membership list. From this skull and bones, there are three American presidents, two Supreme Court justices, as well as numerous American congressmen and senior cabinet officials.

Skull and bones's annual membership of/kloc-0.5 is also considered as the best student of Yale University, among which steve schwarzman, founder and CEO of Blackstone Group, is the representative who entered the "skull and bones" by his own efforts, ranking 50th in Forbes in 2008.

Schwarczman has no prominent background. 1965, Schwarczman was admitted to Yale University with excellent results and was "lucky" to join skull and bones. But in most cases, the membership of skull and bones depends not only on students' grades, but also on their family background, which is an important consideration.

Members' future careers involve education, business, law, industry, government and many other fields, and quite a few members have joined the intelligence community, especially the CIA.
