      It was definitely garbled. By him. With his mouth.

      I thought about “co-ed”, but what sorority is co-ed?

        They’re all co-ed. Co-ed is short for “co-educational” and long ago became a synonym for “female student” when they were first admitted to formerly all-male colleges under programs labeled co-educational. That’s why “co-ed sorority” is redundant and a phrase I’ve never in my life heard anyone use.

        Co-ed used to be a stand in for “women”, which I think is kinda gross. Kind of like calling women “female”.

        I’m not saying it made sense in the context. The dude is a grade A moron. But he might have been using “co-ed” to mean “young female student,” a common phrasing.
