what am I doing wrong?

Use a method to set the TAG variable instead of hard-coding the class name as "TreehouseActivity". We want just the class name by itself without the package name: is it getName() or getSimpleName()? Change the "TreehouseActivity" string to the correct method call (ex. TreehouseActivity.class.<insert correct method>).

package com.teamtreehouse;

public class TreehouseActivity extends Activity {

  public static final String TAG = TreehouseActivity.class.getSimpleName();

  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_treehouse);
    Log.d(TAG, "Activity created!");
  }
}

I hope that is what you are doing :)
