‘Last Lecture’ professor, Randy Pausch, dies at 47

July 25th, 2008 by Christopher Calvi ·

Randy Pausch died today.  He became famous over the past year after delivering his inspirational last lecture about “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams” at Carnegie Mellon shortly after learning that he had pancreatic cancer and only months to live.  My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Donations can be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, 2141 Rosecrans Ave., Suite 7000, El Segundo, CA 90245, or to Carnegie Mellon’s Randy Pausch Memorial Fund (www.cmu.edu/giving/pausch).

You can watch his “Last Lecture” here.
