Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Donatus I. Amaram appeals the district court’s orders

dismissing his claims of discrimination, retaliation, violation of

due process, and breach of contract against his employer Virginia

State University and its Provost. We have reviewed the briefs and

the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

for the reasons stated by the district court. Amaram v. Virginia

State University, No. 3:06-cv-00444-JRS (E.D. Va. Sept. 14, 2006

and Feb. 20, 2007). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

AFFIRMED
