兰迪教授-最后一课讲演
兰a迪.波许的最后讲座:真正实现你童年的梦想2007年9月18日,星期二, 于卡内基.梅隆大学卡内基.梅隆大学副教务长英迪拉.内尔：嗨。
欢迎大家。
我很高兴向大家介绍我们大学的题为旅途的新系列讲座的首场演讲- 这些演讲是我们的社团成员与我们一起分享他们对个人和专业旅途的思考和洞察。
今天旅途演讲的主讲人,你们都知道,是兰迪.波许教授。
下一个是9月24日,星期一,罗伯塔.克莱兹基教授。
要介绍兰迪.波许教授, 我们旅途演讲的第一位主讲人,我希望先介绍兰迪的朋友和同事, 史蒂夫.西伯特。
史蒂夫在艺电公司六年,是负责该公司"模拟人生"游戏全球品牌发展的副总裁。
你们都知道, “模拟人生”起码来说,是世界上最成功的个人计算机游戏之一, 销售了接近十万套。
在那之前, 史蒂夫是艺电公司的战略行销和教育副总裁, 与学术界沟通。
他的目标是同学术界一起为梦想创造计算机游戏的孩子们找到一条有效的教育途径。
因此,兰迪和史蒂夫成为了同事和朋友。
在加入艺电公司之前, 史蒂夫是时代杂志世界广告部的主任和"日落出版",一本在西南地区非常受喜爱的杂志,的总经理。
在任总经理期间, 他开始做的一件事是参观学校, 因为他和兰迪一样都热望让所有上进孩子们能分享他们对科技的热情。
那, 由兰迪朋友史蒂夫.西伯特来作介绍。
史蒂夫?[掌声]史蒂夫.西伯特,艺电公司世界出版行销副总裁：谢谢。
我不想显得很粗鲁地纠正您, 但是我们公关人员可能正在看网络直播, 如果我没有说"模拟人生"销售额是一亿套,那我回去后要吃不了兜着走[ 笑声] . 当然艺电公司并不在意大数字[ 笑声] 我看不到任何空座位, 这很好, 这就意味着我和兰迪打赌赢了。
根据你听谁说了, 他要么欠我20美元,要么欠我他的新大众汽车[笑声] 好吧, 我要汽车。
很高兴能来到这里, 非常感谢。
我将从兰迪的学术履历说起。
我站在这里其实是有点怪异,因为无论我为这个学校资助了多少钱,卡内基梅隆是个我上不了的大学[ 笑声] 但, 没有, 我不开玩笑! 你们想, 哎呀,他真谦逊。
Last Lecture
"We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand."--Randy Pausch When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, was asked to give a "last lecture," he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave -- "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" -- wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have... and you may find one day that you have less than you think"). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, inspiration and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.Randy Pausch's "Last Lecture"HOST:Our VOA listener question this week comes from China. Alex wants to know about Randy Pausch, who died July twenty-fifth of pancreatic cancer at the age of forty-seven.Professor Pausch became famous around the world for a talk he gave to his students at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He gave the talk last September, after doctors told him he had only a few months left to live. He called it his "last lecture."Randy Pausch was famous in his field of computer science. He taught videogame and virtual reality technology. He had helped develop a well known educational software tool called Alice. It lets students createthree-dimensional computer animations.But Randy Pausch's last lecture was not about that subject. His talk was called "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams." Wall Street Journal reporter Jeffrey Zaslow reported on the talk. The newspaper's Web site broadcast a video of it on the Internet. Millions of people have seen it. Professor Pausch spoke to about four hundred students. He said you have to play the cards you are dealt in life. How you play those cards is your only choice. In other words, he could not change the deadly cancer, but only how he lived his remaining days.For the next hour or so, Professor Pausch talked about his childhood dreams. They included experiencing zero gravity. He told how he had reached this goal as an adult.Some of his students won a NASA competition to use the space agency's astronaut weightlessness training equipment. NASA told Mister Pausch that as a professor he could not take part. So he thought up a new plan to getaround the problem. He got a press pass and experienced zero gravity as a reporter. Mister Pausch told the story to demonstrate the barriers that people may find in the way of their dreams.Randy Pausch also told his students that helping other people fulfill their childhood dreams was even more fun than reaching his own. He called on his fellow professors and students to go on without him and do great things. Randy Pausch and Jeffrey Zaslow wrote a book together called "The Last Lecture." It became a best seller. It has been translated into thirty languages. Mister Pausch also raised money and awareness for pancreatic cancer research.Randy Pausch left behind a wife and three very young children. He said the last lecture was meant to be a "message in a bottle that would one day wash up on the beach for my children."Time is all you have. And you may find one day that you have less time than you think. - Randy PauschEach year at a series known as The Last Lecture, a Carnegie Mellon University faculty member is asked to deliver what would hypothetically be a final speech to their students before dying. It is a wonderful tradition in which both speaker and listeners take a moment to reflect upon what matters most in this life. In September 2007, the speaker, 47-year-old computer science professor and father of three, Randy Pausch, didn't have to imagine that he was confronting his imminent demise because, in fact, he was. Pausch had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and, at the time of his Last Lecture, had only been given three to six months to live. Pausch's speech, entitled "Achieving Your Childhood Dreams," was every bit as upbeat and inspirational as the man himself. Rather than focusing on dying, it was a speech about living, about achieving one's dreams and enabling the dreams of others, about truly living each day as though it were your last.As of this writing, Randy Pausch's Last Lecture has been downloaded by over 10 million viewers. If you haven't watched the Last Lecture, let me recommend it as an excellent investment of one hour of your day today. You'll find various methods of doing so here:/uls/journeys/randy-pauschSo far Randy Pausch has beaten the odds, and he continues to inspire his audience. The Last Lecture, published April 2008 by Hyperion, resulted from a collaboration with Jeffrey Zaslow, a columnist for The Wall Street Journal. With a desire to elaborate on his ideas in print form, but not wanting to take precious time away from his children, Pausch, a self-avowed efficiency nut, spent fifty-three daily bike rides on his cellphone headset conveying his thoughts to Zaslow who helped shape the stories into book form.The Last Lecture is a slender book that can be read in just a few sittings. It is full of stories and aphorisms, many of which are familiar from its video progenitor. We revisit Randy Pausch's fulfillment of his childhood dreams and the principles he learned along the way. These gems include Pausch's view that "life's brick walls are there to show us how badly we really want something," the notion that "experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted," and a quotation from the Roman philosopher Seneca who said that "luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."Pausch is a fantastic storyteller, and recalls and distills the essentials of his life's anecdotes more than most of us would be able. The Last Lecture addresses more of his struggles with cancer than it did in video form, but always from the angle of a challenge requiring a creative solution, which is how Randy Pausch seems to have approached his entire life.This book will be read by millions, but was written solely for Randy Pausch's three young children, Dylan, Logan, and Chloe, for whom Pausch is recording all of the fatherly advice he won't be around to give later on. It is because Pausch's advice is so universal in its wisdom and his voice so clear in its delivery, that we eavesdroppers can also benefit.April 9, 2008Now in Book Form, a Professor's 'Last Lecture' Describes How toLive and Die With GraceRandy Pausch, a 47-year-old professor of computer science at Carnegie Mellon University who in 2006 received a diagnosis of terminal pancreatic cancer, has hung on longer than his doctors predicted— long enough to see the publication of the book version of the inspirational “last lecture”that he delivered at the university and that continues to make him a media sensation.The book, released this week, turns out to be a how-to guide to living, and to leaving life gracefully. It mixes decidedly practical advice (such as this tip on time management: stand while talking on the phone for work so that you’ll be encouraged to make calls shorter) with moving stories about what it’s like to go through each day knowing it’s one of your last.It’s a t houghtful adaptation of the lecture, which was seen by millions of people on YouTube. Mr. Pausch essentially dictated more stories and advice for the book to his co-author, Jeffrey Zaslow, a reporter for The Wall Street Journal.Over the past several months, Mr. Pausch talked with Mr. Zaslow via cellphone each day while the professor took long bike rides to try to stay in shape as his body struggled with the effects of chemotherapy.He talks about hi s strategies, which show an engineer’s love for efficiency, for how to get the most out of his last days with his wife, Jai, and their three young children.In an e-mail interview this week, Mr. Pausch said one of his favorite parts of the book concerns hi s relationship with his wife. “In the book, it seemed more appropriate to talk about how Jai and I have handled the many challenges (pre and post cancer) that we’ve faced as a couple,” he wrote. “And I greatly enjoyed sharing those, as they may be helpful to other people facing their own challenges.”In the book, for instance, Mr. Pausch describes a scene that took place during his now-famous last lecture, in which he invited his wife on stage and asked the audience to sing happy birthday to her (he spoke on her birthday). After the song, they embraced as the crowd applauded.“As we held each other, Jai whispered something in my ear. ‘Please don’t die.’ It sounds like Hollywood dialogue. But that’s what she said.“I just hugged her more tightly.” —Jeffrey R.

We all need to see as many dimensions as possible sometimes to find the ones that will crack doors open, it’s just like the “Fifth Element???”— Virgilio Castro Apr 9, 01:09 PM #3./~pausch/Thanks Randy.— Jim Eddy Apr 9, 05:26 PM #4.Truth is not just stranger than fiction it’s more rewarding. Thankyou Mr. Pausch and Mr. Castro for sharing your most challenging moments with those of us on a different part of life’s highway.— Marlene Apr 9, 05:31 PM #5.I continue to be impressed with the class and dignity that Dr. Pauschhas demonstrated since I first became awar e of his “Last Lecture”during the fall. I am also humbled by his attitude. Having lost my brother not too long ago to colon cancer when he was just 47 years old, I have a visceral appreciation for what he and his family are going through. I can only hope that I gave my younger brother the same love and support that Randy is receiving from his family. And,I hope that the lessons he is teaching me through his last lecturewill actually result in a change in my attitude toward life and my behavior with family, friends and colleagues. I will certainly view the “brick walls” in my life in a different way in the future!I, too, join with every one else who extends sincere thanks to Randy Pausch for his lessons to us, and to Virgilio Castro for sharing his experience too. (I also lived in the Bronx when I was younger).— Rick Apr 9, 06:19 PM #6.My dad died of pancreatic cancer in 1997. From the viewpoint I gainedas his son, the approach that Dr. Pausch has taken is inspiring to me. He is eminently deserving of respect.— Al Apr 9, 06:34 PM #7.Thank you Randy for the lecture, I can’t wait to get your book.What an inspiration you are! You are in my prayers.— Brenda Elledge Apr 9, 11:00 PM #8.i think this is a very sad story i have met him he is great and ilove him he is trustworthie and honest he will do anything that is nice sweet and generous he will pass but will never leave so he will be the spirit inside us!— holly Apr 10, 01:41 AM #9.Death teaches us how to live, if we will only pay attention.— Wayne K. Apr 10, 07:56 AM #10.Like Al, my father died of pancreatic cancer in 1997. He was 47 yearsold. Mr. Pausch’s approach to his situation continues to inspire me and reminds me a lot of my Dad’s journey. I agree with Wayne-we definitely need to pay a ttention to death’s lessons.— Kanya Apr 10, 09:00 AM #11.I was privileged to have a very close friend for 51 years. We werein college together, were best men in each other’s weddings, and vacationed with our families together every year for 45 years. He died of pancreatic cancer last year. Randy’s willingness to share his life is helping many, many people in ways he will never know.Thank you, Randy. I hope someone might endow a major pancreatic cancer research program in his name at a medical school – what better tribute to his memory could be made but to find a cure for this disease.— Carl Apr 10, 09:06 AM #12.I have consulted on over 700 end-of-life cases when patients,families and health care prov iders have struggled with “the right thing to do”. Dr. Pausch is unique in many ways and has provided me many opportunities for teaching the next generation of health care professionals how to journey with their patients.— Health Care Ethics Professor Apr 10, 09:45 AM #13.I watched the show last evening and had heard of Randy. I am inspiredwith him as I have been diagnosed with HIV for 22 years. FortunatelyI am healthy but I take Randy’s words at heart. I am anxious topurchase the book— Bob Apr 10, 09:58 AM #14.Dr. Pausch—I saw you on the Oprah show a few months ago. I often wondered howyou were doing. I am happy to know that you have written your book.I do wish that your Saviour continues to spare you yet another day.— Ann Apr 21, 09:56 PM #The Last Lecture在线阅读本书"We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand."--Randy Pausch A lot of professors give talks titled "The Last Lecture." Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them. And while they speak, audiences can't help but mull the same question: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave--"Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams"--wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have...and you may find one day that you have less than you think"). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, inspiration and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it anindelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come. Questions for Randy Pausch We were shy about barging in on Randy Pausch's valuable time to ask him a few questions about his expansion of his famous Last Lecture into the book by the same name, but he was gracious enough to take a moment to answer. (See Randy to the right with his kids, Dylan, Logan, and Chloe.) As anyone who has watched the lecture or read the book will understand, the really crucial question is the last one, and we weren't surprised to learn that the "secret" to winning giant stuffed animals on the midway, like most anything else, is sheer persistence. : I apologize for asking a question you must get far more often than you'd like, but how are you feeling? Pausch: The tumors are not yet large enough to affect my health, so all the problems are related to the chemotherapy. I have neuropathy (numbness in fingers and toes), and varying degrees of GI discomfort, mild nausea, and fatigue. OccasionallyI have an unusually bad reaction to a chemo infusion (last week, I spikeda 103 fever), but all of this is a small price to pay for walkin' around. : Your lecture at Carnegie Mellon has reached millions of people, but even with the short time you apparently have, you wanted to write a book. What did you want to say in a book that you weren't able to say in the lecture? Pausch: Well, the lecture was written quickly--in under a week. And it was time-limited. I had a great six-hour lecture I could give, but I suspect it would have been less popular at that length ;-). A book allows me to cover many, many more stories from my life and the attendant lessons I hope my kids can take from them. Also, much of my lecture at Carnegie Mellon focused on the professional side of my life--my students, colleagues and career. The book is a far more personal look at my childhood dreams and all the lessons I've learned. Putting words on paper, I've found, was a better way for me to share all the yearnings I have regarding my wife, children and other loved ones. I knew I couldn't have gone into those subjects on stage without getting emotional. : You talk about the importance--and the possibility!--of following your childhood dreams, and of keeping that childlike sense of wonder. But are there things you didn't learn until you were a grownup that helped you do that? Pausch: That's a great question. I think the most important thing I learned as I grew older was that you can't get anywhere without help. That means people have to want to help you, and that begs the question: What kind of person do other people seem to want to help? That strikes me as a pretty good operational answer to the existential question: "What kind of person should you try to be?" : One of the things that struck me most about your talk was how many other people you talked about. You made me want to meet them and work with them--and believe me, I wouldn't make much of a computer scientist. Do you think the people you've brought together will be your legacy as well? Pausch: Like any teacher, my students are my biggest professional legacy. I'd like to think that the people I'vecrossed paths with have learned something from me, and I know I learned a great deal from them, for which I am very grateful. Certainly, I've dedicated a lot of my teaching to helping young folks realize how they need to be able to work with other people--especially other people who are very different from themselves. : And last, the most important question: What's the secret for knocking down those milk bottles on the midway? Pausch: Two-part answer:1) long arms2) discretionary income / persistence Actually, I was never good at the milk bottles. I'm more of a ring toss and softball-in-milk-can guy, myself. More seriously, though, most people try these games once, don't win immediately, and then give up. I've won lots of midway stuffed animals, but I don't ever recall winning one on the very first try. Nor did I expect to. That's why I think midway games are a great metaphor for life. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.Randy Pausch's 'Last Lecture' still going strong, a year laterUpdated 4/16/2009 10:48 PM | Comment | RecommendEnlarge AP file photoRandy Pausch talks to a standing-room-only crowd at Carnegie Mellon Universityon Sept. 18, 2007.

RandyPaush-Thelastlecture
RandyPaush-ThelastlectureI came across the famous video 'The last lecture' from Randy Pausch when I am watching video of Steve Jobs.我在网上看乔布斯的视频时，无意中遇见这个很出名的视频，美国卡耐基·梅隆大学的计算机系教授兰迪·鲍什讲的《最后一课》。
The guy who keeps very fit and not that good looking like Steve Jobs, but successfully intrigue my curiosity. I clicked the video and can't stop after that. I don't remember how many times I watched the video and how many persons I share this video with.I just wanted to say, Rand Pausch, who is an outstanding guy, not just in his career but also in his personal life. He shew us the grit on a guy who was cancer sentenced to dead.他没乔布斯帅，也不知他有啥作品，为什么那时他会那么火呢（纽约时报评为“影响世界的100人”、受到布什总统鼓励）？这些成功激发我对他的兴趣。
我点开视频——自那之后再也没能停下来。
我不记得看了视频多少次，也不记得和多少人分享了这视频——尽管知道得那么迟（2008年7月25日他已去世，4年后我才知道有这个人）。
I never know such a charming man like Randy Pausch, who is dying but never stop having fun. He is more powerful than Steve Job on facing cancer, I think. Steve Jobs cried and complained often but Randy smiled to it, teasing at it, trying to havemore fun from the worst. How different the way they are on cancer. I don't mean Steve Jobs is weak, the point I want to talk is no good and bad personality, but just different ones.有趣、幽默，认识这几个字很久。
辑----兰迪·波许《最后一课》演讲词
辑：兰迪·波许《最后一课》2007年9月18日，卡内基·梅隆大学的演讲厅里人潮涌动，400多位师生等着聆听身患绝症的兰迪·波许（RandyPausch）教授的“最后一课”。
他的演讲主题为:真正实现你童年的梦想。
兰迪·波许用了8分钟来介绍自己，期间与读者互动，笑声、掌声一浪盖过一浪。
而正当进入主题演讲时，他所谈到的绝不仅仅是如何面对死亡，而是人生中至重要的一些东西，比如诚实、正直、感恩、克服困难、追求社会平等、实现儿时梦想------演讲分为三个部分：1.波许自己的童年梦想以及他是如何逐一实现的——•体验零重力•参加全美橄榄球联盟•编写大百科全书条目•成为Star Trek中的柯克船长•赢取游乐场的毛绒玩具•成为迪士尼幻想工程的工程师2.波许如何通过开设“构建虚拟世界”课程、创建娱乐技术中心和开发Alice软件帮助别人实现梦想，并感受其中的快乐。
3.关于生活态度、学习、团队合作等的人生经验。
演讲的视频片断在网上播出后，数以千计的人同他联系，表示他给他们的生活带来了深刻影响。
对于那些了解兰迪的人，他带来对生命的别样热情和幽默，即使是面对死亡；对兰迪来说，这只是另一种探险。
《最后一课》经典语句……1.他提到自己的病情：情况就是这样。
我们无法改变它，我们只需要决定如何回应。
我们不能改变我们手里的牌，但能调整如何出牌。
2.我是一个教授，应该有一些经验教训，以及你如何用你今天听到的东西去实现你的梦想，或者助人实现梦想。
当你年长些，你可能会发现，助人梦想成真会更有乐趣。
3.我做了很多的梦。
当然，也有很多梦醒时分！我出生在1960年。
在8、9岁时，电视上正播放人类登月。
任何事情都可能发生，我们不要忽略灵感和允许梦想的巨大力量。
4.我没能参加全美橄榄球联盟。
但我从这未实现的梦想中得到的恐怕比我任一实现的梦想中得到的还要多。
5.这是一个很好的故事，因为它讲的是基本功。
基本功，基本功，基本功。

2006年9⽉，他被诊断患有胰腺癌。
尽管进⾏了⼿术和化疗，他还是于2007年8⽉被告知癌细胞已经转移⾄肝臟及脾脏，⾄多可以再存活3到6个⽉。
美国很多⾼校在资深教授退休前都会为他们安排讲授⼀堂⾯向全校学⽣的“最后⼀课”，表达学校师⽣对其的崇敬和感激，让教授为⾃⼰的教学⽣涯划上⼀个完美的句号。
卡内基梅隆⼤学将其命名为“旅程（Journey）”，希望演讲者能和听众⼀起分享⾃⼰的个⼈或学术旅程。
波许虽然还没有准备退休，但是鉴于他的病情，他在2007年9⽉18⽇做了题为：“真正实现你的童年梦想”的最后⼀课，这也是“旅程”系列的第⼀课。
2007年9⽉21⽇，兰迪·波许被ABC世界新闻列为“本周⼈物”，他也得到了国际媒体的关注。
波许的“最后⼀课”成了互联⽹上的热点，在发布⼀个⽉内被收看超过⼀百万次，他出版的《最后⼀课》⼀书则成为当前亚马逊⽹站上最为畅销的书籍之⼀。
以下摘引李开复在《引领你的⼀⽣》中对《最后⼀课》的⼀段评价： “前不久，我的同学兰迪·波许教授在我们的母校卡内基·梅隆⼤学做了⼀场风靡全美的讲座，题⽬是《真正实现你的童年梦想》。
该讲座的视频在不同视频⽹站上被点播了上千万次。
《华尔街⽇报》把这次讲座称为“⼀⽣难觅的最后的讲座”。
在美国⼀些⾼校⾥，“最后的讲座”是著名教授退休前的最后⼀课。
兰迪教授并没有准备退休，但是他患了胰腺癌，只剩下⼏个⽉的⽣命。
这次讲座对他来说，竟真的是他⼀⽣中“最后的讲座”了。
我的亲友纷纷在电⼦邮件中向我推荐兰迪教授的此次讲座。
我和⼥⼉⼀起看了讲座的视频。
看完后，我们感动地含着眼泪，同时⼜因为感悟和兴奋⽽相视⼀笑。
最后的演讲 文档
Professor Randy Pausch passed away on July 25th. Nine month before he died from pancreatic cancer, he left behind an outstanding spoken gem. His last lecture at Carnegie Mellon University inspired millions of viewers all over the world.Randy Pausch的最后的演讲2007年8月，美国卡耐基·梅隆大学计算机科学教授兰迪·鲍什被告知罹患胰腺癌，只剩下6个月的时间。
2007年9月，兰迪在学校发表了“最后的演讲”——《真正实现你的童年梦想》，让所有师生动容，演讲视频通过网络再次感动了千万美国人。
“最后的演讲”是卡内基大学的一项传统，主讲者都是即将退休的教授，校方希望他们提出对生命中要害问题的看法。
对兰迪而言，“最后的演讲”却有着特殊意味。
在这著名的“最后的演讲”中，进入生命倒计时的兰迪说，他打算开心地过下去，并鼓励大家也这么做，他强调儿时梦想的重要，因为梦想赋予一个人往前走的动力，他庆幸自己能如愿以偿，在在线百科全书上写文章、有机会置身无重力环境、与迪士尼公司协作、甚至参与“星舰迷航”的演出，唯一的遗憾是未能成为职业美式足球运动员。
在演讲上，兰迪出示了一张肝脏肿瘤的断层扫描片，他把这张照片取名为“房间中的大象”，为证明自己体力不错，他当着学校师生做了几个俯卧撑。
兰迪告诉观众永远不要放弃梦想：“阻挡你的这道墙并不是为了阻止我们，这道墙让我们有机会展现自己有多想达到这目标。
这道墙是为了阻挡那些不够热爱的人而存在。
今年5月，兰迪在卡内基美隆大学的毕业典礼上骄傲地向所有人宣布，“我还活着，”在简短的演说中，兰迪说，“我们不能靠活得更久击败死神，我们是靠活得丰富、快乐击败它。

It’s my pleasure to introduce you to the first of our new university’s lectures titled Journeys – lectures in which members of our community will share with us reflections and insights on their personal and professional journeys. Today’sJourney’s lecture as you all know is by Professor Randy Pausch. The next one is on Monday, September 24th by Professor Roberta Klatzky.嗨。
欢迎大家。
我很高兴向大家介绍我们大学的题为旅途的新系列讲座的首场演讲- 这些演讲是我们的社团成员与我们一起分享他们对个人和专业旅途的思考和洞察。
今天旅途演讲的主讲人,你们都知道,是兰迪.波许教授。
下一个是9月24日,星期一,罗伯塔.克莱兹基教授。
1 This is temporary; we will be doing a creative commons license or some such; for now, please consider this footnote your permission to use this transcript for any personal or non-commercial purposes. -- RandyTo introduce Professor Randy Pausch, our first Journeys speaker, I would like tointroduce Randy’s friend and colleague, Steve Seabolt. Steve has been atElectronic Arts for six years and is the Vice President of Global Brand Development for The Sims label at Electronic Arts. As you all know, The Sims is one of the most, if not the most successful PC games in the world, with sales approaching over 100,000.Prior to that, Steve was the Vice President for Strategic Marketing and Education at EA, bridging academia and Electronic Arts. His goal was to work with academics so there was an effective educational pathway for kids with building games as their dreams. It was in that role that Randy and Steve became colleagues and friends.Before Electronic Arts, Steve was the worldwide Ad Director for Time Magazine and CEO of Sunset Publishing, which is a very favorite magazine in the Southwest, and as CEO there, one of the things he started was school tours, because like Randy he shares a passion for inspiring kids of all ages to share their excitement for science and technology.要介绍兰迪.波许教授, 我们旅途演讲的第一位主讲人,我希望先介绍兰迪的朋友和同事, 史蒂夫.西伯特。
史蒂夫在艺电公司六年,是负责该公司"模拟人生"游戏全球品牌发展的副总裁。
你们都知道, “模拟人生”起码来说,是世界上最成功的个人计算机游戏之一, 销售了接近十万套 。
在那之前, 史蒂夫是艺电公司的战略行销和教育副总裁, 与学术界沟通。
他的目标是同学术界一起为梦想创造计算机游戏的孩子们找到一条有效的教育途径。
因此,兰迪和史蒂夫成为了同事和朋友。
在加入艺电公司之前, 史蒂夫是时代杂志世界广告部的主任和"日落出版",一本在西南地区非常受喜爱的杂志,的总经理。
在任总经理期间, 他开始做的一件事是参观学校, 因为他和兰迪一样都热望让所有上进孩子们能分享他们对科技的热情。
So to introduce Randy, his friend Steve Seabolt. Steve?那, 由兰迪朋友史蒂夫.西伯特来作介绍 。
史蒂夫?[applause][掌声]Steve Seabolt, Vice President of Worldwide Publishing and Marketing for Electonic Arts (EA):史蒂夫.西伯特,艺电公司世界出版行销副总裁Thank you very much. I don’t mean to sound ungracious by correcting you, but given that our PR people are probably watching this on webcast, I’d catch heck if I went home and didn’t say that it was 100 million units for The Sims. [laughter] Not that big numbers matter to Electronic Arts. [laughter]I don’t see any empty seats anywhere, which is a good thing, which means I justwon a bet from Randy as a matter of fact. Depending upon who’s version of thestory you hear, he either owes me 20 dollars or his new Volkswagen. [laughter] So, I’ll take the car.谢谢。
我不想显得很粗鲁地纠正您, 但是我们公关人员可能正在看网络直播, 如果我没有说"模拟人生"销售额是一亿套, 那我回去后要吃不了兜着走[ 笑声] . 当然艺电公司并不在意大数字[ 笑声] 我看不到任何空座位, 这很好, 这就意味着我和兰迪打赌赢了。
根据你听谁说了, 他要么欠我20美元,要么欠我他的新大众汽车[笑声] 好吧, 我要汽车。
It’s a pleasure to be here, thank you very much. I’m going to start by covering Randy’s academic credentials. It’s a little bizarre for me to be standing here at Carnegie Mellon, which is a school I couldn’t get into no matter how much I contributed to this institution. [laughter] But, no really, I’m not kidding! You all think, oh gosh he’s humble. Really, no, I’m not humble at all. Very average SAT scores, you know, right in the middle of my high school class of 900. Anyway, Randy. Randy earned – it really pisses me off that Randy’s so smart—actually I called him, we decided about, what, four weeks, ago and we heard the news went from bad to horrific. It was on a Wednesday night and I said look – we have two choices. We can play this really straight and very emotional , or we can go to dark humor. And for those of you who know Randy well, he was like oh, dark humor! So I called him the next day and I was like, dude you can’t die. And he’s like, what do you mean? And I said, well, when you die, the average of IQ of Seabolt’s friends is going to like drop 50 points. [laughter] To which he responded, we need to find you some smarter friends. [laughter] So you’re all smart because you’re here, so if you want to be my friend, I’ll be over in a corner of the reception room.很高兴能来到这里, 非常感谢。
