The Last Lecture of Randy Pausch

Take ten minutes today to watch this lecture by Randy Pausch, a 46-year-old computer-science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and expects to live for just a few more months.

This lecture was originally given to his students on the subject of “How to Live Your Childhood Dreams.” Truly inspirational.

    That’s a really great speech. It’s pretty sad that he’s not going to make it. :(

    That’s a great talk. Sounds like he came from a great family environment!! He’s got the right attitude about life though. Really it could be over for any of us any time. I learned that days after giving birth to my daughter when I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Not the way I planned to spend maternity leave!!! :)
