Current FLA members are Delta Kappa Epsilon, Kappa Sigma (founding member), Phi Sigma Kappa (founding member), Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma Lambda Beta, and Sigma Pi. All but Kappa Sigma are also members of the NIC. According to some web searches, there are three other (NIC?) members that are also FLA members. However, I have only seen the previous mentioned six fraternities listed as members of the FLA.

Phi Delta Theta never joined the FLA and has remained "independent" since their withdrawal from the NIC. However, as an international fraternity, they (and Kappa Sigma) are treated the same within the campus IFC (NIC) structure. So on a campus level, it seems like there has been little to no impact. As such, both fraternities continue to do quite well.

Since Kappa Sigma's, Phi Delta Theta's and Phi Sigma Kappa's withdrawal in 2002, Phi Sigma Kappa has rejoined the NIC. At that time (2006), Alpha Phi Alpha, Beta Chi Theta and Sigma Phi Delta also joined the NIC increasing the total of the NIC to 68 fraternities.

And for what it is worth, various fraternities have withdrawn from and rejoined later the NIC over the years. Frankly, I would not be surprised if either Kappa Sigma and/or Phi Delta Theta did not rejoin the NIC at some point.
