Short Resume Question (I swear)

When reading an undergraduate's resume, should bullets be written out in full sentences?

Oversaw a 100 person student group. Oversaw 100 person student group

Notice the difference? One has 'a...student group' versus just 'student group'. One has a period (since it's a full sentence) and the other doesn't.

Which should go on a resume?

I apologize for the baseness of the question.

Agreed with the above – just make sure it's consistent. I also think it's better not to write full sentences because it lets you put more meat in each bullet, which can't hurt.
