I guess they don't really "have to" but it's a way to take anyone who isn't a freshman without losing a freshman spot in quota. You get 54 frosh and six non-frosh.
It makes it easier for non-freshman to get bids. It was hard at UGA, and this is new this year.

Having an upperclassman quota is for sophs and juniors.
At alot of the bigger schools, chapters are hesitant to take them because it takes up a spot in quota that could have been filled with a freshman (who will be in school for 4 years).
Having an upperclassman allows each chapter to take on a few upperclassmen without them counting in regular quota.
So if Suzie Sophomore is awesome and the total package, you can pledge her without worrying about it.
It makes it a little easier for an upperclassman to have a chance.

Any other results?
How did the upperclass quota work out? I wouldn't be surprised if it was hard for all the groups to make. How did they handle releases? Were they part of the same pool as the freshman?

I heard that Gamma Phi Beta took 57 new members, including the daughter of a charter member of the chapter! 
I wrote a ton of recs and only know about two of them so far - one went
AlphaGam and one went PiPhi.
