And if they do set a total, what happens if NPHC fraternities that are in NIC are on both the IFC Council and Pan-Hellenic Council? If Pan-Hellenic has total and NIC does and they're different numbers for that campus, what would an NPHC fraternity do?
Man I hope that made sense lol.

Second part first....on those campuses where Kappa, Iota, and/or Alpha are on both the local IFC it is moreso for goodwill. I am not too aware of local IFC policies on recruitment, so I can't address the "total" issue there...
However, "total" is very rare among local NPHCs. We usually call them "line caps." Quite honestly, the only orgs that line caps affect are AKA and Delta on large HBCU campuses where they could easily get over a hundred members.
"Recruitment" for us is really selection and intake. There are some similarities between how NPHC fraternities look for candidates and how NIC fraternities "rush" informally. In both processes, the members pretty much already know who they want, NPHCs because the aspirant has expressed an interest already (usually).
