| − | Bill Mayeroff is a member of the Knox class of 2007. A rabid Chicago [[White Sox]] fan who constantly argues with [[Jon Cahow]] about baseball and why Cahow's pro-Mac worldview makes no sense, he started out as a theater major and got sucked into the world of ''[[The Knox Student]]'' as a sophomore. He took over the Mosaic section as a sophomore and the following year moved to News. During spring term of his junior year, he was named the editor-in-chief for the 2006-2007 school year. He took over in May of 2006 and ended his tenure on May 17, 2007 and handed the reins over to [[Tom Fucoloro]].

| − | But newspapers are not the only thing taking up Mayeroff's time. He spends his free time writing and recording countrified acoustic rock songs and covers of pop hits with his friend, partner in crime, and hetero life-mate [[Evan Sawdey]]. Together, the duo is known as [http://www.myspace.com/threecargarageband Three Car Garage]. The band formed one night after a party as a one-time event. But after listening to the music they recorded on Sawdey's computer, they knew they again had to record under the Three Car Garage moniker. Samples of the music can be found on the band's [http://www.myspace.com/threecargarageband MySpace page]. The band has been downloaded all over the world. Three Car Garage is not to be confused with 3CG, which is a Christian rap group, with such hits as "Holy Ghost Stomp."

Since he was a [[freshman]], he has hosted the show almost every term and it is Galesburg radio's only solid block of the [[Beatles]].

| − | After school, Mayeroff hopes to pursue a career in [[journalism]]. The chances of that happening improved greatly on May 17, 2007, when he received his first job offer at a weekly paper in [[Chicago]] that covers the Jefferson Park, Edgebrook, and Sauganash neighborhoods, as well as the village of Lincolnwood, a suburb of Chicago. It was suggested at a meeting of the staff of ''[[The Knox Student]]'' that he was the most likely staffer to die in the pursuit of a story.
