$('.student-list').on('click', function(event) {
$(event.target).hide();
});

you are close. Just read the instructions very carefully. It literally tells you what you must do. I bolded the part you did not do.
Instructions for task 2:
Inside of your click handler, use jQuery to select event.target. Then call the hide() method on your selection. If your code >is correct, in preview mode the student names should disappear when clicked.
