What date was the barber law enacted?

  1. 1925

  2. 1937

  3. 1948

  4. 1955

The correct answer is: 1937

This answer can be found with a simple google search. While the year 1925 may seem like a plausible date for the enactment of the Barber Law, it actually refers to the year that the AMA (American Medical Association) created a set of standards for medical school standards and licensing. The year 1948 is also a commonly mistaken answer, as that is when the AMA actually passed their first code of ethics for physicians. Additionally, 1955 was the year that the Supreme Court ruled that it was unconstitutional to deny a medical license for reasons of race or religion, but it was not related to the Barber Law. Therefore, option B, 1937, is the correct answer for the date that the Barber Law was enacted.
