We will always live on. Arriba Tau Gamma Phi / Tau Gamma Sigma DWCC Chapter! Tau Gamma Phi (ΤΓΦ) also known as the Triskelions' Grand Fraternity, is a fraternity established in the Philippines. Its members call themselves Triskelions. Their aim is to see a Fraternity System devoid
of violence, and to earnestly propagate their fraternity's principles as their way of life. Based on these goals, the Triskelions, categorized their formal group as a 'protest fraternity'. The Tau Gamma Phi Fraternity is now one of the largest fraternities in the Philippines with about 700 thousand registered members. The Tau Gamma Phi or the Triskelions' Grand Fraternity was established in the University of the Philippines, Diliman on October 4, 1968, by student leaders from the College of Arts and Sciences. They were all members of the U.P. Political Science Club. Moved from the discovery of a problem and by seeking viable solutions and initiating purposeful action for personal, familial, vocational and community betterment, prompted the action-group of Restituto Alfonso and Romeo Fortes to form "The Order of the U.P. Triskelions". The name did not catch the interest of the studentry and it was renamed "The Order of the Grand Triskelions". Being considered as just one of the new student organizations in campus, they decided to adopt to the proven popularity of the Greek-named organizations in the campus, and the founders again voted to change the organization's name to the Tau (Τ)Gamma (Γ)Phi (Φ), which stands for Triskelions' Grand Fraternity on that fateful Friday of October in the year Nineteen Hundred and Sixty Eight.
