Which of the following Supreme Court decisions forced the University of Texas to admit an African American student to its law school?

In Sweatt v. Painter (1950), the Supreme Court ruled that Texas had to admit Heman Marion Sweatt, an African American applicant, to its law school because the separate law school created for Black students was not equal. Plessy v. Ferguson upheld segregation, while Brown v. Board of Education addressed school segregation more broadly and came later.
