help with setattr()

Not sure why this code isn't passing, I've been stumped for a good long time now. Seems to run fine in IDLE. Can anyone catch what I'm missing?

first_class.py 
class Student:
    def __init__(self, name, **kwargs):
        self.name = name
        for key, value in kwargs.items():
            setattr(self, key, value)

    def praise(self):
        return "You inspire me, {}".format(self.name)

    def reassurance(self):
        return "Chin up, {}. You'll get it next time!".format(self.name)

    def feedback(self, grade):
        if grade > 50:
            return self.praise()
        return self.reassurance()

Your code looks fine to me. :+1: So I copy/pasted it directly into the challenge and it passed!

So ... try again?
