Rich, I would really enjoy telling the tale to students, and I believe that with a little prep time I could tell it in such a way that it would really benefit them. I have some speaking experience so it probably wouldn't be a bust.

IME undergrads never study the real world, and when I went to St. Joe's for MBA (I quit because too much of it was nonsense), they never studied failure. If 9 out of 10 startups do fail for one reason or another, it's important to study failure.
