A Facebook profile dedicated to making students feel good about themselves has gone viral, spreading kindness to colleges across the U.S. and Canada.

"Queens U Compliments," the brainchild of four students attending Queen's University in Kingston, Canada, publishes anonymous compliments, and tags the objects of affection.

"If there is something nice you have to say about someone but don't feel comfortable saying it to their face, inbox away," the profile says. "Keep in mind that hateful or rude remarks will be completely disregarded."

Some sample compliments include: "Annie Dearden smells like rainbows and happiness" and "Your spirit is that of a young joyous dolphin."

Since launching in September, the profile has attracted more than 4,300 friends. It has inspired "Compliments" pages and profiles for at least 56 colleges and universities in Canada and the U.S. according to Time magazine. For more on the profile, check out the video above.
