If I Ran the Zoo


In “If I ran the Zoo”, John Leo writes about his school as if it were a zoo and he was the manager. He speaks about all the things he would change if he were the one in charge. Among these things are changes in the curriculum, changes in the required courses, no weird stories, no fun classes, etc. I agree to a certain point that some things like weird stories and keeping remedial classes. However, some of the fun classes he says he would cut out as well as the classes that end in “studies”. Although they aren’t always the most fun, I agree with the university in that these classes are essential for a person to get a basic understanding of every study the college has to offer and that it also gives a broad understanding of the world around us. That is why I wouldn’t cut as many things as John Leo says he would cut.
