Geoff Brown

Geoff Brown (aka Uncle Joe Bucket) is a junior at Knox, which means he plans to graduate next year, with the class of 2008. He is majoring in English Literature and designing his own minor in Film. This year he lives in Simonds 2 where there is much revelry and camaraderie. It was in his suite that the fraternity GAA(A!) was formed.


Interests

Geoff likes most things that don't require high levels of physical exertion. These include but aren't limited to; playing music with whatever instrument(s) he can get his hands on, reading, photography, bike riding (a less hardcore way of cycling), dominating the Nintendo Wii (although recently he has been unresponsive to challenges by Brian Lowe, and therefore rumors abound that he may be losing his touch), and curating the massive film and music library on his computer.

In addition, Geoff is a member of the elite circle of cyber-athletes who have bowled a perfect Wii bowling game. In his own words, "I've bowled a 300 at Wii Bowling. That's a perfect game."

Piracy

Like many students at Knox, Geoff has takes pride in being a pirate. No, not in the faux-nostalgic cliched way that many Knox students claim to be pirates; Geoff will steal any media that isn't bolted to the floor. He doesn't fear the RIAA and welcomes a good arguement about copyright law. If you have something you think he has yet to steal he implores that you hasten to contact him through the standard means.

Knox Activities

WVKC

Since the Fall of the '04-05 school year Geoff has hosted a radio show each term. Early incarnations of the show included; Rebel Radio, The Funk Effect, and The Psychedelic Freakout hour, however these themes were highly laconic and generated no interest on or off the Knox campus. His latest audio endeavor is Mornington Crescent which is a hilarious and popular call-in-and-play-along themed show. The rules are confusing, but you'll understand them in time.
