(Decatur, GA)  --  Jennifer Nettles is challenging graduates to go after what they're passionate about.  

"What kind of woman do you want to be? Not what do you want to do for a living or with your life? What kind of woman do you want to be?" she asked.

The Sugarland singer delivered the commencement speech to the 2018 graduating class at her alma mater, Agnes Scott College, in Decatur, Georgia. 

She received her degree from the private women's liberal arts school in 1997.
