Lecture Giving A “Last Lecture” This lecture will give alumni a chance to hear a condensed version of the “Last Lecture” presented by Professor Hums in October 2010 in Washington Hall. The “Last Lecture” is modeled on the original “Last Lecture” presented by Dr. Randy Pausch in 2007 at Carnegie Mellon University. This talk is given only by invitation from student government and asks a well-known professor, “What wisdom would you share if this really was the final time you speak with your students?” It is meant to be heartfelt, but not somber. This lecture will be in the sincere, relaxed style of Dr. Pausch’s original. Wandering Through the Rail Yard This lecture focuses on several areas: It discusses how an industry that is viewed as archaic by most of the population possesses so many unseen high technology systems. It reviews the history of the rail industry’s assistance in bringing Notre Dame and the club’s area into national prominence. Finally, it discusses how the rail industry is integrated into the classroom at Notre Dame. 48 The Hesburgh Lecture Series, 2013 Program

Lectures China, Tibet, and Taiwan: A Fateful Triangle Categories Government, History In this lecture, participants will learn of the political and ideological dynamics of contemporary China by way of the history of its relationship with two countries that it officially defines as part of the “motherland.” With the recent resurgence of anti-Chinese unrest in Tibet and a democratic election in Taiwan that may shift the political balance of this country toward unification, it is critical that we take stock of these current developments and their implications for the future of our relations with the second most powerful country in the world. Participants will learn of the reasons for China’s claim of legitimate sovereignty over these territories while also discovering the grounds of Taiwanese and Tibetan dissent, with an eye to imagining strategies for peaceful resolution. Today’s China: The Olympics and Beyond There is no nation more prominent in the spectrum of world economy and politics than the People’s Republic of China, something made evident by Beijing’s hosting of the summer games of the XXIX Olympiad. China is a force to be reckoned with. It is a place that we must understand. This slideshow lecture is designed to offer a window from which to observe and better understand this nation and its people. This lecture is drawn from Jensen’s recent co-edited work, China’s Transformation: the Stories behind the Headlines, and provides a multidimensional exposure to today’s China. In the course of the lecture, participants will be introduced to the country’s complex human geography and thereby move beyond its conventional popular representation in western broadcast and print media. This lecture explores such critical issues as environmental degradation, ethnicity, film and literature, the Internet, language, nationalism, news reporting, religion, unemployment, and the human costs of the economic boom and the startling relevance of China for the U.S. The Hesburgh Lecture Series, 2013 Program 49
