Randy Pausch, of Last Lecture fame, had the childhood dream of "being Captain Kirk".
He later attended Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned his PhD in Computer Science in 2004 under the supervision of Randy Pausch, popularly known for delivering "The Last Lecture: Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" after being diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer.
In his "Last Lecture," titled "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" (at Carnegie Mellon on September 18, 2007), Randy Pausch extensively refers to "head fakes" during his speech.
