One midnight near semester’s end on the skirts of Harvard Yard, music
thumped and laughs rang out from a colonnaded, Greek-revival mansion, the
sort usually seen in Hollywood fantasies about fraternal campus life. But it

This was the headquarters of the Fly, an exclusive men’s fellowship known

checking names against a list of the lucky invited. Eager young women in
micro-minis queued up.

spilling from windows in which the silhouettes of revelers held pool cues
and beer bottles. She was hunched over, legs flopped on either side, face in
hands. She had managed to get in but was “kicked out,” she wailed into a
phone pressed against her ear. Her cheeks were reddened, streaked with
mascara.
Now, she sobbed, “they won’t let me in!”
