Equal Protection Clause; what amendment is this? How is it related to judicial review? What are the levels of scrutiny?
the 14th amendment; “No State shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” which means that Governments must treat people equally! Unfair classifications among people or corporations will not be permitted, such as racial discrimination. Our fundamental rights are PROTECTED by the Due Process Clause in the 14th amendment. However, the govt makes classifications every day. There are 3 categories of classifications: 1) minimal scrutiny; classifies ppl into economic or social categories; to be upheld, it must be RATIONALLY related to a legitimate goal. They’re almost always upheld 2) Intermediate scrutiny; Gender-based classification; these are sometimes upheld; must have an exceedingly persuasive justification (good reason) to be upheld. Private school’s aren’t a part of the govt, so they can classify by gender bc they dont’ get protection from the Equal Protection Clause. However, To keep a girl off an all boys team at a public high school, the school would have to prove that doing so substantially relates to an important government objective. 3) strict scrutiny; Race, Ethnicity, Fundamental Rights; almost never upheld; Any govt action that discriminates against racial/ethnic minorities or interferes with fundamental rights is invalid. In such cases, courts will look at statute/policy w/ Strict Scrutiny. How does a law pass a strict scrutiny test? – It must be justified by a compelling govt interest – That law/policy must be NARROWLY TAILORED to achieve that goal/interest, meaning its written to specifically fulfill only its intended goals – Law/policy must be the least restrictive means for achieving that interest

Mississippi Univ. Women v Hogan (1981) Joe Hogan, a registered nurse and qualified applicant, was denied admission to the Mississippi University for Women School of Nursing’s baccalaureate program on the basis of sex. Created by a state statute in 1884, MUW was the oldest state-supported all-female college in the United States. -Did the state statute which prevented men from enrolling in MUW violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment?
Yes. The Court held that the state did not provide an “exceedingly persuasive justification” for the gender-based distinction. The state’s primary argument, that the policy constituted educational affirmative action for women, was “unpersuasive” to the Court since women traditionally have not lacked opportunities to enter nursing. If anything, argued Justice O’Connor, the statute “tends to perpetuate the stereotyped view of nursing as an exclusively women’s job.”
