Remembering Randy Pausch
Jul. 30th, 2008 02:54 pmRandy Pausch died last Friday of pancreatic cancer. Like a lot of my friends have said, he wasn't always our most favorite professor and it took me a little while to appreciate what he really did for us. TBH, it wasn't until I actually started working in the games industry that I really fully appreciated everything I learned in BVW (Building Virtual Worlds). The technology was such a small part of what we got out of that class, everything else was learning about people. Out of everything I did at CMU, that class was by far the most challenging and most rewarding. I have so many anecdotes I wouldn't know where to start.
Daisy made a really cute drawing & probably summed up what I meant to say a little more eloquently. :D
