Welcome to @Home@Yale, a compendium of all things New Haven and Connecticut written for members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, their partners, and families. If you’re new to Yale, this blog has you in mind in particular. We know how hard it can be to find your bearings in any new community—especially one as diverse, decentralized, and geographically scattered as the one you’ve just joined. But if you have been in the New Haven area for many years, our goal is to help you find new things to do and perhaps rediscover an old favorite or two.

Check back regularly for new reports on everything from how to skip the traffic on I-95 to where you can find your new favorite cheese; send us a message if you have topics to suggest or are interested in contributing your writing talents; and be sure to visit the FAS web portal on Living in the New Haven Area for a comprehensive guide to the resources, people, and places that underpin our university community. Enjoy!
