The Last Lecture

Just to let you know, our 8th grade watched the very beginning of this video and the last 24 minutes or so of this video. Very inspirational with great advice. Long story short, this professor at Carnegie Mellon, Dr. Randy Pausch, was diagnosed with terminal cancer and given less than 6 months to live. He gave one last lecture filled with advice on how to live your life. It hit Youtube and became one of the most watched videos in Youtube history. He then wrote a book and actually ended up living over a year with his cancer diagnosis before he passed away. His advice is a great way to start our middle school students' last year here at Carlisle Middle School. To learn more, visit this site.
