McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, legal case in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously (9–0), on June 5, 1950, that racial segregation within the facilities and institutions of colleges and universities is inconsistent with the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. It is undisputed that all of McLaurin's sentences are for a term of years. The plaintiff, George W. McLaurin, who already had a master's degree in education, was first denied admission to the University of Oklahoma to pursue a Doctorate in Education degree. The plaintiff is now being afforded the same educational facilities as other students at the University of Oklahoma. Founded in 1890, it had existed in Oklahoma Territory near Indian Territory for 17 years before the two became the state of Oklahoma. He says in effect that only if he is permitted to choose his seat as any other student, can he have equal educational facilities. v. This process is automatic. Under a 2014 amendment to the statute, inmates serving life sentences without the possibility of parole are exempt from this mandatory-savings provision. SWINTON, V.C.J., and GOREE, J. States could satisfy this requirement by allowing blacks and whites to attend the same school or creating a second school for blacks.
Limiting the exception to those inmates who have an actual sentence of life without the possibility of parole is a reasonable method of accomplishing that goal.
The desire for a bright-line rule as to which inmates are exempt from the mandatory-savings program and which are not serves the legitimate governmental interest of creating a program that is far easier to administer than one that draws the line at which inmates have a realistic chance of release during their life.

Okla. 1949) case opinion from the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma c) treatment given to African American students at an integrated graduate school. The Fourteenth Amendment does not abolish distinctions based upon race or color, nor was it intended *531 to enforce social equality between classes and races. We will not invalidate an amendment to a statute that the Oklahoma Supreme Court has previously upheld under rational basis review where the effect of the amendment is to achieve a legitimate governmental interest in a more narrowly tailored fashion than prior to the amendment.

George W. McLaurin was an American professor, and the first African-American to attend the University of Oklahoma. Having reviewed the statutory text, McLaurin's petition, and the record on appeal, we find that although McLaurin does have the functional equivalent of a sentence of life without the possibility of parole, the statutory exemption from the mandatory-savings provision applies only to inmates who have such a sentence in fact. Because the classification presented — that is, inmates sentenced to a life-without-the-possibility-of-parole sentence versus inmates with a different sentence that has the same effect — does not target any suspect class or implicate any fundamental right, the statute must be upheld "so long as it bears a rational relation to some legitimate end." ¶13 "The Fourteenth Amendment guarantee of equal protection `is essentially a direction that all persons similarly situated should be treated alike.'" This statement is correct as far as it goes; however, any argument McLaurin makes that he has a property interest in the mandatory-savings fund is foreclosed by Cumbey v.

School authorities were required to deny him admission solely because of his race under Oklahoma statutes, which made it a misdemeanor to maintain or operate, teach, or attend a school at which both whites and African Americans were enrolled or taught. Throughout his extensive academic career, he was a legal consultant for various desegregation school cases, prominently in Sweatt v. Painter, Sipuel v.
