Skull And Dagger (honor Society)
The Skull and Dagger Honor Society is the all-university honor society at the University of Southern California. Founded in 1913, the society is primarily for graduating seniors consisting of leaders, scholars, and student-athletes. Many great USC alumni have been members of the Skull and Dagger Society, though the identities of the members are kept a secret.
It is tradition for the newly inducted members each year to pull a prank on the University and the student body on the day when they all are revealed to be new members. Past pranks have ranged from edgy to fun. In 2013, Skull and Dagger new members hosted a false "Special Announcement" at the center of campus near the Tommy Trojan statue.

Its wings spread wide to rain and snow,
To strike his living hi and ho....”
