Citation please. I've never seen that rule. The rule that I have seen in the NIC is this one in the NIC by-laws:

Section 1. Membership Requirements.

(a.) Fraternity Membership. To be eligible for membership in the Conference, a fraternity must:
. . .

3. Be mutually exclusive of and in competition with other general fraternities, meaning that no member fraternity shall initiate a member of another fraternity until such time as the second fraternity shall have been formally notified in writing by the national office of the first fraternity that a candidate for membership in the second fraternity is no longer regarded as a member of the fraternity.
