Pure Inspiration! Becoming Inspired and Moved, truly moved to Action by Randy Pausch's "Last Lecture" Video Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 - July 25, 2008) gave his last lecture at the university on Sept. 18, 2007, to a packed auditorium and has since been viewed the world over. In his moving presentation, "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams", Pausch talks about his lessons learned and gives advice on how to achieve their own career and personal goals. 
Randy's life story, outlook on life, and philosophy on dealing with challenges and adversity is not only inspirational and motivational but leaves the viewer with a renewed sense of hope, conviction, and purpose.
We'll have plenty of tissues on hand as well as popcorn, snacks, and other refreshments!
