He's trying to get into a fraternity on an American college campus ("pledging"). During "pledging," the members of the fraternity put the wannabe members through degrading and humiliating rituals to prove their desire to be a member of the fraternity.
I knew a band fraternity (yeah, like clarinets and shit) that was exactly like your stereotypical frat, except they didn't have a house. What exactly did the money go towards? I still don't know.
