The Taung & Zhell Society existed as a collegiate organization for students attending the University of Coruscant, which is located on the planet known by the identical name. This organization adopted its title from the Taung and Zhell, who were two historical and ancient sentient species originating from Coruscant. A former member included Tiaan Jerjerrod, an individual native to Tinnel IV who went on to become a Moff within the Galactic Empire.
The society, known as the Taung & Zhell Society, received a mention within the canon publication Star Wars: The Rebel Files, a boxed set and reference book. Daniel Wallace penned this book, which was published in 2017. Wallace designed it as a parallel to the Skull and Bones secret society found at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.
