About Yale

In the words of the historian George W. Pierson, Yale University, founded in 1701, is “at once a tradition, a community of scholars, and a society of friends.”

This Tumblr is a photo album, sketchbook and moodboard of sights and sounds from around the University and our home, New Haven, Connecticut. Some truly incredible people live, learn, teach and play here - we would like to introduce you to a few of them.

Want to submit something to be published on the blog (say, a photo of the Wooster Square cherry blossoms in bloom, or even a personal video project)? Go right ahead and send it through the Submissions page.

“If you don’t like the weather in New England, just wait a few minutes.”
Connecticut author Mark Twain’s line seems particularly relevant this week: snow Monday (seen here), high of 51F today. (Michael Marsland photo).
