Due to the mandatory scholastic commitment of obtaining four volunteer hours, many students have found ways to cheat volunteering and amass a ridiculous amount of hours for doing absolutely nothing to benefit the community. Some students merely sign up to volunteer and sit at a desk for hours doing homework or scrolling through social media just to get a form signed by a supervisor. This makes it extremely unfair for students who actually strive to make a difference in the community and spend much more effort in less hours. The significance of one’s volunteering cannot be classified merely by time.
