That is disappointing to hear, pageEL60. My son sat in on a lesson and spoke to several students taking lessons with faculty when he was on campus during Bulldog Days. None mentioned a shortage of decent practice pianos. But I think there should be enough pianos for all students who want to play, not just those taking lessons. If there is a piano in your residential college, have you tried asking the master or dean to have it tuned/repaired? I believe the residential college heads have discretionary funds available for things like this.

Yeah that's a good point. Complaining to your master sounds like a good option. Though there are pianos everywhere at Yale, my guess is that they aren't maintained b/c they aren't used as much, and the people who do play on them occassionally are not likely to complain.
