#2 The Atlantic - Skull and Bones and Equity and Inclusion. They wanted to tear down Yale from the inside. Then they got into its most exclusive secret society.

One evening in 2019, in a windowless building known as the “tomb” in the center of Yale’s campus, the members of Skull and Bones snapped. There they were, having been granted membership to the most elite secret society at one of the most elite universities in the world—part of a rare group that for generations included individuals from the most powerful families on the planet. Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, and Buckleys have all been in Skull and Bones. Three Bonesmen would go on to become president of the United States. Their traditions (including oaths of secrecy upon admission) and antics (stealing the gravestone of Yale’s founder), and the rumors about them (that the Bones tomb contains several human skulls), are legendary—and an intense source of campus gossip.

#5 The latest from the Times of Israel’s liveblog:

Close to 30 protesters have been arrested on the third day of an ongoing pro-Palestinian demonstration on the grounds of Yale University, the Yale Daily reports.

According to the report, the protesters set up a tent encampment overnight as they demanded that the university divest from weapons manufacturers amid the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

Some of the arrested protesters are students at the university, the report adds, but does not specify how many.

In a statement to the college newspaper, Yale Police Lieutenant Roosevelt Martinez says the protesters were arrested for trespassing, but does not provide further details.

#11 "We'll hear now from Jerelyn Luther,
Alumna and Halloween truther,
Who's still [knowing nods]
Shrilly haunting the quads
As the Spirit of Yale--"
"With a sting in her tale--"
"Sure, were Albion Yale, she'd play Uther!"
