Description in code challenge incorrect?

My code is as followed. It is telling me to make sure that the "implementation of the description matches the challenge". I have checked over it several times; can't seem to figure out what is wrong here. Help?

structs.swift 
struct Tag {
    let name: String
}

struct Post {
  let title: String
  let author: String
  let tag: Tag
  func description() -> String{
    return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag)"
  }

}

let firstPost = Post(title: "I", author: "g", tag: Tag(name: "fad"))

let postDescription = firstPost.description()

Here's the culprit! When you're interpolating the tag name you need to use tag.name.

 return "\(title) by \(author). Filed under \(tag.name)"

Cynthia Arnow :information_source: You can find a link to the challenge at the top of the page. You should see a green button that says "View Challenge".
