Secret Society

I'm researching about "secret society" and wikipedia gave me these information:
 

A secret society is a club or organization whose activities and inner functioning are concealed from non-members. The society may or may not attempt to conceal its existence. The term usually excludes covert groups, such as intelligence agencies or guerrilla insurgencies, which hide their activities and memberships but maintain a public presence. The exact qualifications for labeling a group as a secret society are disputed, but definitions generally rely on the degree to which the organization insists on secrecy, and might involve the retention and transmission of secret knowledge, denial of membership in or knowledge of the group, the creation of personal bonds between members of the organization, and the use of secret rites or rituals which solidify members of the group.

Alan Axelrod, author of International Encyclopedia of Secret Societies and Fraternal Orders, defines a secret society as an organization that is:

• Is exclusive
• Claims to own special secrets
• Shows a strong inclination to favor its own

Wikipedia also included this picture of the "Secret Society Buildings at Yale College"

The caption says:

Left center: Skull & Bones (Russell Trust Association), 44 High Street. Right center: Delta Kappa Epsilon (Phi Chapter), east side of York Street, south of Elm Street.
