The Russell Trust Association is an organization associated with the administration of the affairs of the Skull and Bones society, a senior-year secret society at Yale University. Founded in 1856, the Russell Trust Association was incorporated in 1856 by the Connecticut State Legislature.
History[edit | edit source]
The Russell Trust Association was named after William Huntington Russell, one of the founders of Skull and Bones. The association was established to manage the society's assets and to oversee the organization's real estate and financial interests. The incorporation of the association marked a significant formalization in the operations of Skull and Bones, reflecting its influence and the need for a structured management system.
Purpose and Activities[edit | edit source]
The primary role of the Russell Trust Association is to manage the financial and real estate assets of Skull and Bones. This includes maintaining the society's headquarters, known as the "Tomb," a windowless building in New Haven where the society's meetings and rituals are held. The association ensures the privacy and security of the society's activities and maintains the secrecy that Skull and Bones is known for.
Controversies[edit | edit source]
The secretive nature of Skull and Bones and by extension, the Russell Trust Association, has often been the subject of speculation and conspiracy theories. Critics argue that the society's influence extends into various sectors of American political and economic life, given the prominence of some of its members who have risen to significant positions of power.
Notable Members[edit | edit source]
While the full membership list of Skull and Bones is not publicly disclosed, known members have included former Presidents, government officials, and leaders in various fields. These connections have fueled theories about the extent of the society's influence.
