Campus Expectations
Open Expansion
No NIC member organization is prohibited from selecting undergraduates for the purpose of establishing a chapter on the campus of the host institution. The host institution's Interfraternity Council may not deter expansion by withholding membership of NIC group from IFC.
Open Recruitment
Host institution will support open recruitment and will not prohibit any male enrolled as a full time student in good standing from participating in rush recruitment activities and joining an NIC member fraternity. Host institution will not prohibit NIC member fraternity from recruiting/rushing male students on campus.

The way I'm reading his post was that NIC requires a campus to support a chapter. That is, there can not exist a chapter without school recognition. But non NIC orgs can charter in a particular city and not need school recognition to do so.
