(2) Denial of comparable opportunity in intramural and interscholastic athletic programs;
(3) Discrimination among persons in employment and the conditions of such employment; and
(4) The application of any rule which discriminates on the basis of (a) the pregnancy of any person, (b) the marital status of any person, or (c) the condition of being a parent. Rules requiring certification of a physician's diagnosis and such physician's recommendation as to what activities a pregnant person may participate in are permissible.
