Volunteer Hours on Resume?

[Libra924]

For graduate school or law school applications that require a resume, if you have volunteering experience, do you have to put how many hours you volunteered?  My guess is no, and I say this because Harvard Law School has sample resumes on their website which show volunteer activities without the number of hours.  So if Harvard accepted these people without them stating their volunteering hours, I would surmise that you can get away with not putting the number of hours on your resume.

For reference, here's the resume that Harvard Law school considers to be a model resume:   https://hls.harvard.edu/content/uploads/2008/11/golitely-resume.pdf

The second page has the volunteer section, and no hours are stated.  Best to follow Harvard's advice!
