Why are most fraternities named after the Greek alphabet?

The tradition began with the establishment of the first collegiate Greek-letter society in North America, founded in 1776 at the College of William and Mary. This society used the Greek alphabet to symbolize the values of knowledge, friendship, and moral integrity. The use of an unfamiliar alphabet served a practical purpose by creating an air of secrecy and exclusivity among members. The Greek letters also served as a form of encryption, concealing the fraternity's true name from the public and non-members. This helped foster a sense of mystery and exclusivity, a key feature of early Greek societies. Since then, the adoption of Greek letters has become the defining custom and standard practice for new collegiate social organizations, collectively known as the "Greek System." These organizations function as a form of student self-governance on college campuses, organizing ritualistic brotherhoods and sisterhoods rooted in shared values and traditions. They offer a close-knit community and support network that helps members adapt to college life, achieve academic success, and develop leadership skills. After graduation, members transition to alumni status, often remaining involved through mentorship, donations, and professional networking opportunities, fostering lifelong commitments beyond college. The first Greek fraternity in the Philippines was founded in 1918 at the University of the Philippines. It is also the oldest Greek-letter organization and fraternity in all of Asia. New fraternities and sororities continue to follow this tradition, adopting the Greek-letter format to emulate the prestige and unique social structure associated with these organizations.

The Latin phrase "Quocunque Jeceris Stabit" literally translates to "Whithersoever you throw it, it will stand," or "Whichever way you throw it, it will stand." This saying is associated with the Three Legs of Man, a heraldic symbol also known as a triskele, characterized by three symmetrical legs arranged in a circular pattern. The phrase emphasizes the design's theoretical property: regardless of how the device is thrown or positioned, it will always land with at least one "foot" or leg securely on the ground, symbolizing resilience, stability, and independence. This imagery conveys the idea that no matter the circumstances or challenges faced, one can remain steadfast and upright and you are one step ahead of others

The origin of the fraternity handshake is deeply rooted in the history of secret societies and fraternal orders. Collegiate fraternities in the United States, which began in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, were often modeled after older fraternal organizations. These groups share common elements such as secrecy and the use of complex identification symbols, including Greek letters, passwords, and secret grips (another term for handshakes).

The purpose of handshakes (grips) is recognition. The primary aim is for members to discreetly identify fellow initiated members, particularly those from different chapters or encountered later in life.

Exclusivity and bonding are also significant; sharing a secret ritual like a handshake fosters a strong sense of identity and belonging, creating a unique bond among those who are "in the know" and reinforcing the organization's exclusivity.

Traditionally, these gestures preserve the history and ritualistic heritage of the fraternity.

The Triskelion Handshake is perhaps the only fraternity handshake performed in an upright position. Once the hands are clasped, it remains in an upright posture, signifying our fraternal supremacy and pointing upward toward God, our Creator, the source of our strength. This gesture directly reflects and embodies the organization's identity, symbolizing the conglomeration of the three dynamic forces: Fortis, Voluntas, and Fraternitas.

The Triskelion Handshake consists of three parts: the thumb, the little finger, and the three fingers in between. The thumb is undoubtedly the strongest finger, symbolizing Fortis. Conversely, the little finger represents Voluntas, as it is more flexible and experiences the least stress. The three middle fingers symbolize Fraternitas, indicating unity and bonding.
