Getting null when using getString with JSONObject class on Android

I have the following code:

JSONObject student2 = new JSONObject();
    try {
        student2.put("name", "NAME OF STUDENT2");

        System.out.println(student2.get("name"));
        System.out.println(student2.getString("name"));

    } catch (JSONException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

I was just trying to create an JSONObject and extract the "name" value from it.

But the two "System.out.println" commands returns null. I expect the string "NAME OF STUDENT2" as a result.

What I was doing wrong?
