Ariba Tau Gamma!

On October 4, 1968, the Tau Gamma Phi Triskelions' Grand Fraternity was established in the University of the Philippines, and the rest is history.

Moved from the discovery of a problem and seeking viable solutions,prompted the action-group of Rod Confesor, Roy Ordinario, Talek Pablo, Vedasto Venida, Restituto Alfonso and Romeo Fortes to form "The Order of the U.P. Triskelions". Lack of interest from the student body led to the renaming of the group again to become "The Order of the Grand Triskelions". Again a lack of interest led to another renaming but this time, realizing that Greek Lettered Organizations were popular among the students in the campus, the founders voted to change the organization to a Greek Lettered name. Finally adopting the Greek letters Tau Gamma Phi which stands for Triskelion Grand Fraternity on October 4, 1968 at the University of the Philippines, Diliman, Quezon City.

By now only four of the original six founders were left, dubbed "The Four Founding Fathers". They are Rodrigo Sta. Maria Confesor, Roy Alolor Ordinario, Talek Hamias Pablo, and Vedasto Sario Venida. The Fraternity was recognized at the University of the Philippines and soon Bro. Jun Rodriguez founded Tau Gamma Phi Fraternity in 1968 at Cavite - the first site of formal initiation.
