Answer 1

Answer:

United States v. Virginia

Explanation:

The case United States v. Virginia (1996) is a landmark case in which the Supreme Court established that the Virginia Military Institute could no longer continue implementing its male-only admission rule. The majority decision established that the institute could not show persuasive reasons for the existence of the policy. It also established that such a rule violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection clause.
