Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson gave a lighthearted speech to graduates from American University’s Washington College of Law that drew on life lessons learned from watching the reality TV show "Survivor." Jackson told her audience that they should make time for things they love, know their strengths, and play the long game. She also urged them to make the most of the resources they have, even when they feel out-resourced. Overall, Jackson's speech went over well with the audience, as many graduates braved the outside heat whilst donning AU-blue gowns to attend the ceremony in person after a period of online learning. The ceremony marked a significant achievement for many graduates, as it came after a period of study that occurred during the coronavirus pandemic.
