March 15, 1996: In protest of Chinese missile tests in the Taiwan Strait apparently intended to intimidate voters preparing to vote in Taiwan's first-ever popular presidential election, TCS, along with fellow Harvard Taiwanese groups HROCSC and HUTSC, holds a rally on the steps of Memorial Church to voice their support of the historic milestone in Taiwan's political history, and condemnation of China's intimidation tactics. The rally features talks by physics graduate student Philip A. Fisher, HSPH associate professor of virology Tun-Hou Lee, and law student and Tibetan Youth Congress member Lobsang Sangay, and includes attendees from Emerson College, Boston University, the New England Conservatory, and the Boston Taipei Economic and Cultural Office.
