McLaurin v. Oklahoma Regents for Higher Edu.
In McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (1950), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the University of Oklahoma must treat students equally following admission regardless of race, thereby making separate but equal unattainable in graduate and professional education. Following George McLaurin admission, his admission was still on a segregated basis. He has to set separately from other students in the Student Union and Bizzell Library.
