Maybe, except there's no reason to say "co-ed sorority" since all sororities are co-ed by definition - I've never before heard anyone say "co-ed sorority". That's also what makes "college sorority" unlikely (sororities are almost always associated with college), leaving "colored sorority" as the most reasonable interpretation.
If it wasn't historically relevant, why would they use the word on their page? Coed is relevant because women used to segregated or not be eligible for higher education at all. He's taking a shot at women, not people of colour. He yearns for the times women "knew their place" (ugh, I feel gross just typing that) and didn't seek education or a career.
In any case, that clip sounds to me like "coloured" only a tiny bit more than it sounds like "college", which is to say, not much.
