There are two museums you should visit. It is important not to get them confused, as I did once when speaking with the curator of one who I thought was the curator of the other. The Yale Center for British Art is widely acclaimed. http://ycba.yale.edu/information/ The Yale University Art Gallery http://artgallery.yale.edu/ is I believe Edward Hermann took the lovely Rory on that infamous campus visit episode. I am seriously considering makign a trip back to NY so I can take the Metro North New Haven.
I know nothing about collegiate clubs, and neither, dear Gabbneb, should you.

A few years ago, I went there for the first time since I was a kid. Kind of disappointing, as when I was a kid it seemed like the Smithsonian, and when you go there as an adult, you see how piss-small the museum really is.
Still, the Dinosaur Mural kicks ass...

Sleeping Giant Park (named because it really DOES look like a sleeping giant--you can see it in the distance from the highway traveling north on I-91) is good for a hike:

Or you could see the Soldiers & Sailors Monument atop East Rock:

Wouldn't make it an all-day trip, of course. Of course, Hamden Plaza used to be a veritable treasure trove of "art" displays (read: conceptually wacky eyesores).

The next time I go, I'm going to look at the Yale collection of musical instruments.
According to this, Franny and Lane meet "at what must be Princeton."

I think all the small towns in Connecticut are really nice and all the "cities" really suck.

Which small towns (close to New Haven)?

New Haven is becoming quite the happening burg! It is very disorienting.
