"The Triskelion firmly believes in the power of reason and not in the use of power as a reason"
The Tau
Gamma Phi was born on the 4th day of October ninteen hundred and sixty eigth at U.P. Diliman, Quezon City, Philippines...
it is one of the first true Filipino fraternity ever founded that is still in existence.....since then it has grown and spread
to almost every island in the Philippine archipelago and to every major university... it has chapters from Aparri to Jolo...and
to all corners of the world. Amidst the turbulence during the late 60's, the rallying U.P. activists, communism on the rise,
Philippine government on the brink of martial law, and the worsening fraternity violence.... there rose the Tau Gamma Phi
orginally known as the Order of the U.P. Triskelions. The fraternity was organized by a group of varsitarian men which were
one in the thinking of re-establishing the true essence of "brotherhood" which was at that time lost and misconcepted
by most. And for this very reason the Tau Gamma Phi conceptualized the so called "Anti-Frat System". With the rampant
violence among warring fratenities, the uncontrollable hazing leading to a number of deaths among neophytes....It was at this
time that the belief and trust in the fraternity system was diminishing. .....hence the Tau Gamma Phi was known as a "
Protest Fraternity
