Wow. Here in my little corner of Suburbia, we have nothing like that. Maybe because there's over 5000 kids in three different schools on one campus so you really can't tell who the freshmen are. Unless you're in a core class.

*thinks a moment* Actually, we probably do have something like that at our school, but the place is so big that it can't affect everyone.

Well, being homeschooled, of course, we have absolutely none of that. However when I attended public school for the short amount of time that I did, we had an orientation where the principal basically just stood up and lied to us. Telling us all these things we could do, and half of the freshmen class, including myself got in trouble for stuff the principal said we could do. But the only thing we did was meet our homeroom teachers, and some people got their bus schedules. However, our orientation was useless. All they did was gab to our parents and try to make the school seem like it was something that it wasn't. Not to mention it was the second worse school in the state of Georgia at the time.
when there's nowhere to go, it's time to grow up.

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.
