I'm just guessing here but I believe he means initiate. Or perhaps it is campus protocol that the chapters on his campus do not rush former pledges of other fraternities.

Also, some NICs do not allow a member to withdraw (terminate membership) on their own accord without jumping though a lot of hoops. As such, to be able to join another fraternity, a rushee needs a written confirmation from the former NIC HQ that he is no longer a member. If he doesn't have that, and the campus knows he was initiated in another fraternity, then they won't pledge him.
