The Ateneo officer's sash was the brainchild of First Lieutenant Onesimo C. Banaga, AdDU-CMT Commandant for School Year 1989 - 1990. Lieutenant Banaga, a Philippine Military Academy graduate, drew inspiration from his alma mater's sash, but was keen to use distinctively local materials. Its was used officially for the first time on October 1, 1989 -- during the 4th Presentation of Sponsors.

The sash was originally intended to be worn during formal parades -- however during combined unit parades other sashless units decried the lack of uniformity, and compelled the Ateneo to refrain from using the sash during inter-unit events. Interestingly however, the same units who objected to the sash, adopted their own the following year.

The sash endures as one of the unit's more resilient unit icons.
