Members of Massachusetts Fair Share, a citizens' action group, demonstrated in the Yard in an attempt to convince the University to double the payments it makes to the City of Boston each year in lieu of taxes. Although Harvard is legally tax exempt, it pays the city $2 million each year to cover tax payments on some of its larger real estate holdings; the citizens' group wanted the University to up the rate to $5.3 million. After failing in an attempt to meet with President Bok--University police officers informed the protestors that "nobody's home" when they came calling at his office door--the group talked with Archie Epps, who suggested they talk with Assistant Vice President Don Moulton, who listened some and didn't do very much.
