Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954)
This ruling assisted in ending the segregation of colored individuals in the educational realm and promoted equity. One party ruled for colored individuals to be separated, while the opposing party did not agree and felt it was still violating the 4th amendment. The final court ruling ruled against separating colored from whites and kept them in the same classroom. The final ruling favored equalism in the classroom. This was historical in creating equity for all in the educational realm. -
Board of Education v. Rowley, 458 U.S. 176 (1982)
In the Board of Education Vs. Rowley, the debate steamed from equal opportunity in the educational realm for disabled students. The Board of Education debated that interpreters were not required for disabled children, while Rowley argued in favor of interpreters for equity. The final ruling was that the instruction and services be such as “to permit the child to benefit educationally from that instruction.” The ruling marked the first time that the court had interpreted any portion of the EHA.
