Dr. Randy Pausch’s Last Lesson
CMU professor gives his last lesson on life
That’s just a highlights video.
Here’s a link to the the complete media stream from the event (about 1hr, plus).
I’m posting this on the professional site because Randy has made some great contributions to the field of virtual reality, science, and education — and everyone should know about it.
I’m also posting it because I know Randy. I worked with him when I was at Disney. And I can attest that he’s not putting on a show or brave face. That’s exactly how he is in person: positive, smart, and genuine.
He doesn’t want pity or sadness. He’s achieved his childhood dreams. So I’m not sad for him, but for his family, friends, and, in fact, the rest of the world, who will miss him, whether they all know it or not.
