The authors present a brief commentary and analysis of two problems related to 30 years of IDEA implemen- tation: an increasing schism between general education and special education, and the unequal treatment of an entire class of students. Over the years, special education has become its own microcosm of programs and prac- tices, making it difficult to realize an interdisciplinary approach to the education of all students. The authors analyze the possible sociopsychological implications of the categorization of students. They end with their vision of the unification of general education and special edu- cation into one education system for all students. DESCRIPTORS: educational reform, racially inte- grated, separatism
