Skull and Bones, a secret society at Yale University, was founded in 1832. Until 1971, the organization published annual membership rosters, which were kept at Yale's library. In this list of notable Bonesmen, the number in parentheses represents the cohort year of Skull and Bones, as well as their graduation year. Some news organizations refer to the organization's members as a power elite.[1]
There are no official rosters published after 1982 and membership for later years is often speculative.
