It means that chapters may now pledge upper class (jrs. and srs. - or do they count sophomores also?) students without it impacting the number of undergraduates they can pledge.
EXAMPLE - Quota is 50 for lower class/10 for upper classmen. Each chapter can take up to 60 new members - this will enable chapters to freely bid upperclassmen without worrying that they will end up with fewer freshmen.
To anticipate a possible follow-up question - chapters prefer to pledge freshmen because they will be able to be active for a full 4 years, as opposed to a junior who will only be active for 2. This is great news - I've always hated the fact that if you didn't decide greek life was for you early on you hurt your chances to land in some chapters.
