The biggest difference i have noted is the formation of the chapter itself within the two different programs. I am from a Balanced Man chapter and at times i like it and at times i dont. The most notable differences i have noticed is the way new members are treated, in balanced man at ours for example on the first meeting you get to vote if there was one. Whereas in our neighboring chapter which is traditional, you have to pledge and earn your keep there. I like the ideals of the balanced man and if it is ran properly it is an amazing system, however in our case, the E.C. is not what it should be and therefore can not run a BMP chapter the way it should be ran and it turns into a mess. A strong VP of Member Development is ESSENTIAL for a BMP to work the way it needs to and it is a chapter wide effort. But it must be a great program or else other fraternities would not turn to us for advice on how to work a program like that in their fraternities (like S gAy E). SigEp -holla.
