I don't think they would be required to, but I don't think our style of recruitment lends itself to "focuses". I think it would end up playing out like chapters of SDT/AEPhi that are still largely Jewish, even though it's not a requirement to join. It could also become stigma-like...only instead of the fat/nerd/party house, it's the *focus* house.
I also think it would make a difference if the focus was a required aspect of membership. If you can ONLY take certain majors/minors as opposed to being made up of largely certain majors, I would think that would come into play when NPC votes to grant membership.
