The term "Concrete Jungle" refers to the first-year courtyards that include the first-year residence halls [[elton_hall|Elton]], [[funston_hall|Funston]], [[jones_hall|Jones]], [[jackson_hall|Jackson]], [[trinity_hall|Trinity]], and [[smith_hall|Smith]]. The term may have been first used in print in the //[[tripod|Trinity Tripod]]// in 2005, but use of the colloquialism probably dated from well before.
