Actually, this is the first time that student housing has held this event. Other groups have held them before on campus, but it has never been a yearly event. This series was inspired by the book, and yes, many universities have done this before so it is not going to be 100% original but it's a mew tradition b/c they want to keep it up each year unlike the other groups who do it when they can

Um no. The Last Lecture series has been around since at least 2002 when I was a Tech freshman. The book was inspired by a similar lecture series at another university. To paraphrase "Salute Your Shorts," get it right or pay the price!
