Academic Buildings

All the law school academic buildings open on weekdays between 6:15 and 6:30 a.m. They close between 5:00 and 5:30 p.m. unless there is a scheduled event taking place in the building. You can get the weekly event schedule from the Events Office. The buildings are also closed on the weekends unless there is an event.

If you need to reach your locker in the tunnels, you can access it after academic buildings have closed through the Harkness Commons building (see Hark hours below).

In an emergency, contact HUPD at 617-495-1212 to get into a building at any hour.
