Well, we still have pledge model chapters. Balanced Man chapters definitely have a lower hazing rate, but they're not perfect. The thing with the BM Program is that it's extremely flexible. So, there are BM chapters that basically function like pledge model chapters.
Nonetheless, HQ doesn't force any chapter to become a BM chapter. As long you're following the rules and taking care of your members right, pledge model or BMP, they're happy.
Plus, the BMP doesn't exactly force any new ideals onto a chapter since it's principles are tied to our Ritual.
