"Pumping out your guts" could be a reference to the not too subtle fraternity tradition of forcing pledges to drink ungodly amounts of alcohol, to the point that more than a few need to have their stomachs pumped.

"Turning out your lights" could have numerous references to pledgeship: being blindfolded, locked in dark rooms for long periods of time, etc.

Like I said, I could be wrong, but just because I'm a frat boy doesn't make my opinion any less valid than yours, contrary to your belief.
