TRAVEL/HOUSING

How do I get there?

Located at 127 Wall Street, New Haven, Connecticut, Yale Law School occupies the block bounded by Grove, York, Wall, and High Streets at the heart of the Yale campus in downtown New Haven, CT.

By trains and planes: Trains run regularly to New Haven from New York City (via Metro-North Railroad or Amtrak) and from Boston (via Amtrak). Commuter airlines provide connections to Tweed-New Haven Airport from many U.S. cities. Bradley International Airport in Hartford (BDL) is a major international airport accommodating all major airlines (including the economy airlines such as Southwest) and with direct flights to all major cities. It is located about 40 miles north from New Haven and may be reached either by car or by Connecticut Limousine's Shuttle service.

From I-95: From the north: Connect to I-91 North in New Haven; take Exit 3 (Trumbull Street) and follow directions below for I-91. From the south: Connect to I-91 North in New Haven (left exit); take Exit 3 (Trumbull Street) and follow directions below for I-91.

Where can I stay?

RebLaw attempts to house everyone in need of housing for the conference by arranging homestays with Yale Law Students or other students in the area. When you register to attend the conference, please indicate if you will need housing (Friday and Saturday nights ONLY). Yale and Quinnipiac students/affiliates will be given the opportunity to volunteer to house people -- which we hope you will do! We do not guarantee that we will find everyone housing, although every effort will be made to find homestay hosts for conference attendees.

Keep in mind, however, that it takes time to coordinate housing. Please try to register as soon as possible to ensure we can find housing for you. RebLaw coordinators absolutely cannot provide housing for anyone registering after Friday, February 1, 2010.

Note: Storage WILL NOT be available at the law school. Please arrange to drop any luggage or belongings off at your host's house or hotel.

There are also hotels in the area: City of New Haven Lodging Information. The Courtyard by Marriott, Omni New Haven Hotel, Colony Inn, Hotel New Haven and Hotel Duncan are all walking distance to the conference. Please Note: The Courtyard by Marriott should be able to provide a discounted rate to conference participants.

If you have questions about housing for RebLaw, please feel free to contact us at rebellious dot law dot housing at gmail.com.

How should I get around when I'm in New Haven?

Yale Law School is located in the heart of downtown New Haven, with all the major restaurants and bars within walking distance.  We will provide a map with directions to some of our favorite eating and drinking establishments for you to network with other rebels into the wee hours.

For those venturing out into those hours, we will be providing a shuttle service for all of your inner-New Haven traveling needs.  We encourage all to use it as a safety precaution, and we will make it as easy as possible to do so.  More information will be provided in your registration packet.

Will there be Internet access?

Yes. Wireless Internet access will be available at the conference. Instructions for access will be provided when you arrive.

Wait! I have more questions...
