I have been involved in several groups with secret initiation rituals, and all include the following elements:

1) The initiates take some sort of oath to the organization
2) The organization's secrets are revealed to the initiate: Secret motto, the meanings behind the colors or symbols, etc.

As far as things like pledging rituals and other stuff, that is less-secret for a lot of orgs. I know that we allow invited guests to most of our rituals. If there's a group on campus that might let you witness something like that, it could help.
