Not in the post you quoted, but that's not really here nor there. :-)
Is there an NPHC policy, or is it up to the individual orgs? In the NPC, it's actually a conference policy, and at least a few orgs have had to close existing chapters at CC's (or their last-century equivalent) to join the NPC.
In any case, I think there's a larger discussion to be had about NPC policies and how we do/do not (and whether we should/should not) accommodate non-traditional students. We've come a long way with the different recruitment styles and such, but I think there may be more room to think creatively about these things. We say again and again that "membership is for life", but then we don't let people join if they didn't make that decision when they were 17/18.
Now, some things are org-specific, and I applaud the groups that consider grad students as PNM's and the ones that have more accepting AI (oh, god, I hate to mention that) policies. But there are definitely some areas where a group's hands are tied by NPC policies, recruitment and otherwise.
