The fraternity’s original beginnings date back to a group of students who desired to bring Moslems and Christians together into a bond of loyalty, service and brotherhood. It was founded on July 1, 1967 in the Islamic City of Marawi and later established its autonomous chapters at various schools in the City. It had an estimated 1,500 members as of 1990, which composed of Muslim and Christian initiates in the greater areas of North Cotabato and Lanao del Sur. Most prominent of these were its initiates from UTC and ILS of the Mindanao State University in Marawi City and its members from Notre Dame University in Cotabato City.

The fraternity went inactive in 1995 until reactivated in 2012 by Olarte, Velez and Colango - known to be the fathers of modern U.S.B.[http://www.upsibetans.webs.com/history The Order of Upsibetans History] | The fraternity’s original beginnings date back to a group of students who desired to bring Moslems and Christians together into a bond of loyalty, service and brotherhood.
