## Description

The College App is a campus social hub where students can share posts, photos, links, and polls on a campus-wide feed. Posts can be anonymous or attributed to a user, with verification via a valid school email for safety.

Beyond the feed, the app includes a searchable student directory (by graduation year and major), direct messaging, and listings for campus events. In select schools, users can access local discounts inside the app.
