Abstract	This comment is in response to Andrew D. Colgan's article in a previous issue of the journal. While the author finds Colgan's institutional analysis compelling and agrees his proposed "deinstitutionalizing solutions" of reviving teacher culture and return teacher education preparation to teachers' colleges. He proposes a third remedy, which he thinks is equally de-institutionalizing and equally long-term: change the institution. The author defines changing the institution by cultivating fertile ground for philosophers of education to ply their trade, and for students to study the subject, someplace other than teacher education programs. He thinks this could happen in philosophy departments so teacher preparation can return to teacher's colleges. He does not offer this proposal as a rival to Colgan's proposed solutions, but rather as an additional avenue worth pursuing. [To view Andrew D. Colgan's article, "The Examination of the Decline of Philosophy of Education with Institutional Theory: A Focus on the Last Three Decades," see EJ1182109.] (ERIC).
