UniRate is a peer-driven digital review platform designed exclusively for college students to share honest, experience-based insights about all aspects of campus life, from housing and dining to academics and social culture. Unlike generalized platforms such as Yelp or Reddit, UniRate creates a trusted, student-verified ecosystem built “for students, by students,” promoting authenticity and relatability. UniRate is more than just a review site, it’s a cultural tool that modernizes how students choose, experience, and influence college life. UniRate aims to give information and access about universities never available before for the benefit of all who want to experience campus life.

Description
Drawing from phenomenological reflection, current research, and personal experience during a study abroad semester in Alicante, Spain, this thesis explores how a country's cultural values can influence quality of life by comparing collectivist and individualist societies, specifically Spain and the United States. Spain's collectivist culture, emphasizing relationships, community, and universal healthcare, contrasts with the United States' individualistic values of self-reliance, achievement, and financial success. Through a review of literature, cultural history, and interviews captured in an accompanying podcast, this research argues societies that emphasize collective values over individualist values tend to lead to a better quality of life for its members due to greater access to social support in their everyday lives, cultivating a sense of belonging and stability.
