Many pre-frosh said they agreed with PSLM's call for a living wage.

"Frankly, the fact the University hasn't already [granted a living wage] disgusts me," said Jennifer S. Axsom, a visiting high school senior.

Others said they were impressed that students could demonstrate so freely.

"When you stop and think about it, it shows that the University gives students an opportunity to speak out on an issue they care about," said Javier A. Valle.

Valle, who is still deciding between schools, said the demonstration improved his view of Harvard.
