--description--

To underline text, you can use the u tag. This is often used to signify that a section of text is important, or something to remember. With the u tag, the browser applies the CSS of text-decoration: underline; to the element.

--instructions--

Wrap the u tag only around the text Ph.D. students.

Note: Try to avoid using the u tag when it could be confused for a link. Anchor tags also have a default underlined formatting.

--hints--

Your code should add a u tag to the markup.

js
assert.lengthOf(document.querySelectorAll('u'), 1);

The u tag should wrap around the text Ph.D. students.

js
assert.equal(document.querySelector('u')?.textContent , 'Ph.D. students');
