And no, it's not a "campus thing"... These are national policies set forth by each individual NIC organization.

Again, MysticCat knows what's up.
I know someone who did. I don't believe it's common but I wouldn't say it never happens. It involved a transfer student and his prior affiliation was never disclosed to his second fraternity. I can also see situations where the local chapter could sort of "look the other way" or "DADT" if they really wanted the guy for whatever reason. Not all chapters walk the straight and narrow.
BUT
I really can't see these other groups taking this guy as a member knowing that he has already been initiated by a fraternity on the same campus. And last but not least, I've never heard of any NIC Fraternity allowing former or current members of other NIC Fraternities to be initiated into their org (other than in instances of a merger).
