When they say "make an instance of your class named me", you don't create a function, you assign the variable by referencing the class (like if you were calling a function). Then you had the right idea of how to access the "name" attribute, but the instructions had asked you to print it.

me = Student();   # this makes an instance of the class "Student" named "me"
print(me.name)    # print out the "name" attribute
