It's primarily used at bigger schools with competitive recruitment where upperclassmen generally have a hard time getting bids.
The rationale behind having the upperclassman quota is that it allows a chapter to bid some upperclassmen without them counting in regular quota and taking a spot that could be filled by a freshman.
At many of the schools that don't use upperclass. quota, chapters might be hesitant to bid a soph or junior that they really like because that means one less freshman (which are preferred because they = 4 years of dues and participation).
It just takes away from the "taking Jamie Junior means one less freshman" thing.
Some schools have junior quota, while others have it so that it includes any upperclassmen (sophs AND juniors).
