[1] Readers who want more on the cermonial and initiation aspects should read the September, 1977 Esquire article by Ron Rosenbaum. The Last Secrets of Skull and Bones.

We offer no objections to their existing clan

No one disputes with them this right, we question but the plan

On which they act, that only he who wears upon his breast

Their emblem, he for every post shall be considered best.
