Epps said police harassment is an issue theUniversity takes seriously.
"[Harassment] was a problem with Harvard policein the past and I think we've made some progress,"Epps said. "We've been working very hard withthem."
The Harvard University Police Department (HUPD)has faced claims of racial harassment in the past.
In April 1994, Inati Ntshanga '95 charged thatHUPD had falsely arrested him for trespassingafter he accused the department of harassment.
More recently, Michael Itagaki '97-'98 filedsuit against HUPD officers for humiliating him andviolating his Fourth Amendment rights.
Williamson said the worst thing about lastFriday's incident was not the police actionitself.
"The worst thing was that at first we weren'teven going to do anything," Williamson said."We've gotten so accustomed to the racialinsensitivity of the police that we didn't thinkabout it at first.
