I don't agree with a university telling an organization how many members they can take. I think it penalizes the organizations -- why be punished if your org is doing everything right and attracts more qualified people than the rest?

I know NPC members have a different philosophy on this generally, so please understand that essentially I'm not talking to you, LOL. Love you, though! LOL..... but seriously, NPC members can respond if they want.

(PS - I am aware that there is another thread on this topic, but I wanted a greater breadth of contemporary responses from NPHC and non-NPHC members.)
The NIC does not advocate caps - i.e. chapter totals or rush (intake) quotas - at all. However, the NIC defers to the campus IFC regarding rush/membership. As such, a few campuses (I know of only three, but I'm sure there may be more) have (or had) some sort of cap in place. As I recall, all three caps were regarding some type of rush (intake) quota. Now for what it is worth, an individual fraternity and/or chapter might have some sort of self imposed cap.
