This edition of LOTE CED Communiqué discusses how the foreign language education (FLE) field suffers from major "dissing" between practicing teachers, at the primary and secondary levels, and the post-secondary level. In this position paper, viewing the situation as culture clash between various subcultures of the larger FLE culture, SEDL offers examples of successful articulation initiatives and suggestions for facilitating interaction between the two groups.
