Volunteering

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
What are people's thoughts on including volunteer work with Wiki Leaks on med school apps? Too controversial? Are online volunteer experiences, more generally, typically frowned on, even when an applicant presents with in-person involvement, over a substantial period of time, with other organizations?
Who will you use as a contact to legitimize your involvement and attest to the hours of time spent? Just wondering.
 
You're probably screwed at schools in the south, and USUHS. Harvard and Yale may love you. The UG schools, I mean.
