Student Senate will host its annual Last Lecture event this Thursday. This year’s speaker is Kathleen Underwood, a Grand Valley State University professor in the Women and Gender Studies Department. The event is inspired by the book by Randy Pausch called “The Last Lecture.” Pausch was a professor at Carnegie Mellon University when he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and decided to do a speech for his students as if it was his last. The Last Lecture will be held in the multipurpose room on the atrium level of the Mary Idema Pew Library from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. LIB 100 and 201 courses approve the event. It is free, catered and open to the public.
