Alexandra Robbins went to Yale and it is rumored she was in one of the secret societies. Not one as prestigious as Skull and Bones, but a society geared toward writing in the arts.

She visited my university and spoke at the journalism school during the time she would have been doing the "research" for Pledged. The timing of her visit and some of her descriptions makes me think that my school in one of the schools she used for the "characters" in her book. I have thought so since the book came out.

I was at the NGLA when she was there, I think. I had a strange sense of remembrance when I read some of the things she references. I don't recall exactly what at this point, but when I read it years ago something struck me about what she wrote- as if I was in the meeting or something.
