YLS

The Yale Law School campus comprises two main buildings. The Sterling Law Building, constructed from 1929–31, is one of the finest examples of Collegiate Gothic architecture in the country. Baker Hall, a modern extension of the campus, opened in 2018 and includes apartment-style housing, high-tech classrooms, a student center, and offices for several centers and programs.

We, as lawyers, can be builders too. We can use our tools to build a society in which every member of the new generation can celebrate her graduation — not only with joy but with well-founded hope for the future.”
