Total isn't a "cap" on membership like quota is a cap on bids. It's a number derived at from the average chapter size on campus with consideration given to how many are way below that and how many are way above. The only time total comes into consideration at all is if a chapter is below total after recruitment, they can recruit (COB) up to total - not just quota. This allows the smaller chapters the chance to grow to a size more in line with the others on campus. Otherwise, they would only be allowed to pledge quota and would never have a mechanism in place to grow to met the size of the others.
