The Balanced Man Program is based on continuous, single-tier development divided between four challenges. Balanced Man Program chapters will have the opportunity to participate in four challenges that progress throughout their entire college experience.
Members in the Sigma Challenge will focus on time management skills and chapter orientation. The Phi Challenge will help emerging leaders develop leadership skills and gentlemanly behavior.
The Epsilon Challenge provides members opportunities to tackle leadership positions within the chapter and campus community, as well as develop a sense of civility. Lastly, members in the Brother Mentor Challenge will focus on their experience after college and will begin developing professional skills for the working world.

Throughout the four year, single-tiered member development program, the Balanced Man Program builds a bond of lasting friendship that fosters an environment conducive to leadership and academics. Our brotherhood is built through four challenges that evolve through a member’s status in his college career. Within the Balanced Man Program, SigEps are exposed to leadership, experiential learning, personal development, mentoring, and other positive activities that focus on a core of universal respect and balanced living. Members track their progress through the Quest workbook, which evolves with a member from the day he joins SigEp to the day he graduates. Member expectations are based on experience level in the academic, campus and personal aspects of their lives and link those to the value and ritual of our fraternity

Sig Ep "iniates" like everyone else, but they do not become full members until junior year. So if they fail to meet the "balanced man" requirements they can be cut.
National IFC position is that a Sig Ep who has not finished Balanced Man can quit and pledge elsewhere since he was never a full member, so that says it all.

@in other words That's true to an extent, but new members get to wear letters and the badge on day 1 and are recognized as brothers with full privileges. The only thing they don't learn until Epsilon is completed is the full Ritual.
Bunch of B.S. if you ask me. BM is a liability to our fraternity. We need to go back to being a traditional chapter even if it means going underground. Our nationals can suck it.
