Living or Dying?Randy Pausch is a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon. Carnegie Mellon's computer science department has a lecture series titled "The Last Lecture." The premise being that if this were your very last lecture, what would you talk about? They asked Dr. Pausch to give this years last lecture. While meant to be a fun and interesting interlude, this lecture took on much more significance when Randy learned that he had metastatic pancreatic cancer and this really would be his last lecture.
His talk was taped and posted on YouTube. You can watch it here. Over 2 million people have watched the video since it was posted.
Randy Pausch has a website where he posts frequent updates about his medical course. You can visit his website and find out how he is doing.
He even wrote a book titled The Last Lecture -- which you preview here. He did all this within the last year after finding out he had pancreatic cancer. Not bad.
