美国校园内最神秘的五大学生组织 1. SKULL AND BONES SOCIETY 骷髅会 Ironically, probably the most famous of the student secret societies – the Skull and Bones Society – gained national prominence during the 2004 presidential election when it emerged that both major candidates, President George W. Bush and then-Senator John Kerry, were members of the society during their tenure at Yale University. The society has popped up occasionally in pop-culture references, with the name of the organization being rumored to refer to the club’s ownership of the stolen skulls of Indian chief Geronimo, among others. 骷髅会或许是这些神秘学生组织里最富盛名的，而对于它的关注度更是在2004年总统大选之际达到了顶峰。原因便是大选中两位最具实力的候选人—乔治·布什和时任麻省参议员的约翰·克里，都曾在就读耶鲁时是骷髅会的成员。这个组织在有关通俗文化的文献中也被时有提及，人们传言骷髅会的得名与他们收藏了印第安领袖杰罗尼莫的头盖骨有关。 In the hallowed halls of the most prestigious universities in the nation, there is an even more exclusive series of secret student societies that “tap” prospective members to join their prestigious organizations. The cause of numerous conspiracy theories, membership to the secret societies has included presidents, CEOs and luminaries in a variety of fields.在全美最顶尖的那些大学里，正活跃着一群比这些学校的声名本身更令人瞠目结舌的秘密组织，它们午夜星云一般地散布在那些宏伟的教学楼中，蛊惑着潜在会员们去速速索讨一张报名表。你或许想不到，那些层出不穷的阴谋论的始作俑者中，那些神秘组织的成员列表里，甚至还有许多你耳熟能详的名字—或是政治舵手，或是商业巨擘，他们正活跃在国家机器的每个肯綮环节。 2. SCROLL AND KEY SOCIETY 轴匙社团 Scroll and Key is another Yale University secret society, and the rivals of the Skull and Bones at the school. Founded 1842 after disputed elections at the Skull and Bones, the society can count among its members renowned composer Cole Porter and political commentator Fareed Zakaria. The Scroll and Key Society is also known for its contributions and donations to Yale, including the endowment for funding the Yale University Press.轴匙社团是耶鲁校园内另一大秘密组织，也是骷髅会的强劲对手。轴匙社团成立于1842年，也就是在骷髅会选举风波之后，著名作曲家科尔·波特、政治评论家法里德·扎卡利亚都曾是轴匙社团的成员。该社团还以他们对于耶鲁的巨额捐赠而为人瞩目，耶鲁大学出版社的建立就得益于他们的捐助。 3.
