Just a link to the Frat he mentioned
"Tau Gamma Phi (ΤΓΦ) also known as the Triskelions' Grand Fraternity, is a fraternity established in the Philippines. Its members call themselves Triskelions. Their aims are to see a Fraternity System devoid of violence in lieu of the rampant violence pervading the university campus at the time of its founding, to avoid elitism if they can, 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 Fraternity encourages its members to strive for spiritual growth and to organise socio-civic activities for the benefit of communities. The Fraternity believes that it must forge its members to embody qualities of leadership, commitment, persistence, trust, integrity, respect, and vision for them to achieve academic success and personal development."
Just because Nazis made use of the symbol for somthing does not forever make it an evil symbol, especialy if the symbol existed long before nazis existed.
Edit: If you google image the name of the symbol itself "triskelion", the first real picture that has the one used in this logo, is the one for the Tau Gamma Phi, basicly meaning that the symbol is more affiliated with them, than it is with Nazis, the Tau have 800,000 members
