      In this article, the authors advance 10 postulates describing what they believe to be true about collaboration in special education: (1) Collaboration in teacher education is possible; (2) Collaborative programs can be initiated from many departure points; (3) Collaboration requires real time for communication; (4) Supportive leadership is essential; (5) New programs occur in conjunction with strong school partnerships; (6) It is possible to work with State Departments of Education; (7) Even if some people do not buy into the changes, progress can be made; (8) Evaluation is an important component of program development; (9) Collaborative programs can be responsive to the community surrounding the university/college; and (10) Collaboration forces a confrontation with new or alternative conceptions of teaching and learning. These postulates lead to the following questions: (1) How will we define special education?; (2) How appropriate is the diversity umbrella?; (3) What is the role of faculty development?; and (4) How important is program evaluation? (Contains 1 table.)
