Tyler Hall
Linguistics Program
Most of the Linguistics faculty have offices in the English department. The English department is normally housed in Tucker Hall, but from July 20, 2009, the English department and the Linguistics Laboratory will be moving to Tyler Hall to await the renovation of Tucker Hall.
Tyler Hall is located on James Blair Drive (on the north side of the Sunken Garden). It's west of the arrow on this map from Google. The Department of English is located on the second floor.

Parking
Visitors are encouraged to obtain a Visitor Parking Pass, available from Parking Services at 201 Ukrop Drive (next to Adair Hall) or from the circulation desk at Swem Library ($2 per day, $10 per week). With a Visitor Parking Pass, you can park in any campus space designated for visitors, faculty/staff, or students (unless restricted "at all times"); and, if appropriate, at any space reserved for the disabled.
Metered spaces, very few in number, are also available to visitors. Campus parking is regulated and closely enforced from Monday at 7:30am through Friday at 5:00pm Other times, unless the spaces are subject to specific restrictions, campus parking is open to the public.
In many areas adjacent to the College, street parking is subject to certain restrictions. Read the signs carefully to avoid being ticketed.
Nearby free and paid parking is available in the Merchants Square area opposite College Corner.
Flight Travel
Three airports are convenient to Williamsburg: Richmond International Airport (RIC), Norfolk International Airport (ORF), and Newport News/Williamsburg Airport (PHF). Richmond and Norfolk are each about an hour from the College by car; Newport News is about 40 minutes. Keep in mind that there is a tunnel between Norfolk and Williamsburg, which can sometimes cause traffic delays. All airports offer shuttle service to Williamsburg and the College.
Train Travel
Amtrak offers train service to Williamsburg and can be a convenient way to travel from the northeast corridor. The station is about a fifteen-minute walk from College Corner.
