Well, parents will always get upset, ’cause I would tell them, you need to get a college degree. Don’t worry about grades. Your grades don’t matter. You need the degree. I mean, ’cause we’ve hired people who had C’s and D’s, but they were interested in the work. Get experience if you can, you know, if you can volunteer at the zoo, even just being around, you’re in Milwaukee being around, being a Zoo Pride volunteer. Even if you’re not working directly with animals, you get to meet the keepers. You can learn what you want, find out what you’re interested in, look at other things. You need experience working with animals.
