Randy Pausch has Died

Randy Pausch, the Carnigie Mellon professor whom I wrote about in the wake of his “Last Lecture” in the face of terminal pancreatic cancer, has died.

Here is a clip of his lecture, which was part of a series of lectures given by Carnigie Mellon professors to discuss the lessons they have learned in their life journey.

Just prior to his speech, the series title was changed from “Last Lecture” to “Journies”.

The Pausch response: “”I thought, damn, I finally nailed the venue and they renamed it,”
