OPINION AND ORDER
KENNETH M. KARAS, District Judge.
Plaintiff Chester Widomski brings this action against Defendant State University of New York (SUNY) at Orange, also known as Orange County Community College (“OCCC”), alleging violations of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), 42 U.S.C. § 12132 et seq., and the New York Human Rights Law, 15 N.Y. Exec. L. § 296(2)(a). (Second Amend. Compl. at Ex. A (“SAC”) ¶33.) Plaintiff alleges that Defendant discriminated against him by preventing his participation in a phlebotomy clinical program based on his hands shaking, a perceived disability, and brought a disciplinary action against him in retaliation for complaining about the discrimination. (Id.) Defendant now moves for summary judgment on all claims. For the reasons stated herein, Defendant’s motion is granted.
I. Background
A. Factual Background
The following facts are drawn from the Parties’ submissions and are undisputed except as otherwise indicated. In 2008, Plaintiff was a student at OCCC concentrating in the Medical Laboratory Technology Program (the “Lab Tech Program”). (Def.’s Rule 56.1(a) Statement (“Def. 56.1”) ¶ 1; Rosamaría Contarino Aff. at Ex. G (“Contarino Aff.”) ¶ 3.) During the 2008 fall semester, Plaintiff enrolled in the Clinical Training I class, a required course for the Lab Tech Program that included “routine tasks” in hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis, and phlebotomy. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 1-2; Contarino Aff. ¶ 3, ex. B.) Plaintiff was assigned to Catskill Regional Medical Center (“CRMC”) in Sullivan County, (PI. Deck in Opp. to Def.’s Mot. for Summary Judgment (“PI. Deck”) ¶ 4; Contarino Aff. ¶ 3), and Rebecca Sander (“Sander”), an employee of CRMC (and not OCCC), was assigned as his proctor. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 16; Rebecca Sander Dep. at Ex. 3 (“Sander Dep.”) at 20-22, 117-18.) Among other course requirements, the Clinical Training I course required that each student submit weekly clinical summary reports signed by his or her proctor and accompanied by a narrative. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 3; Pk’s Rule 56.1(a) Statement (“Pl.56.1”) ¶5; Pk’s [537]*537Counter Rule 56.1(a)- Statement- (“Pl.’s Counter 56.1”) ¶ 1; Contarino Aff. ¶ 3, ex. B.)1 The weekly clinical summary reports consist of standardized forms with blanks for date and time; a list of procedures with blank boxes to indicate number observed, number performed, and whether competency was achieved; an area for comments; and signature blanks for the proctor and student. (Contarino Aff. ¶ 3, ex. B.)
At some point prior to October 7, 2008, Sander conveyed to Plaintiff that he was not permitted to participate in the phlebotomy portion of the clinical, a decision, she states was based on her personal observations of Plaintiffs hands shaking, (Def. 56.1 ¶ 16; Rosamaría Contarino Dep. at Ex. D (“Contarino Dep.”) at 81; Sander Dep. at 60-61; PI. Deck ¶¶ 2, 6), a characterization disputed by Plaintiff, (PI. 56.1 ¶ 13).
On October 7, 2008, Plaintiff met with Rosamaría Contarino, the Department Chair of the Lab Tech Program, and‘discussed the fact that the required weekly summary reports and narratives had not been submitted. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 4; PI. ■ 56.1 ¶¶ 3-5; Contarino Aff. ¶ 4.) Specifically, as of October 7, 2008, the seventh week of the semester, Plaintiff had not submitted any clinical training summary sheets and had submitted only a small number of narratives. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 4; PI. 56.1 ¶¶ 4-5; Contarino Aff. ¶ 4.) The Parties dispute whether Plaintiff or Sander was at fault for the failure to provide the reports.2 During the’ meeting, Contarino and Plaintiff signed a written agreement that Plaintiff would submit the required documentation by no later than October 9, 2008 .at 2:00 p.m. to avoid receiving an F in the course. (Contarino Aff. ¶ 5, ex. C.)
Plaintiff and Contarino also discussed the decision to prohibit Plaintiff from participating in the phlebotomy portion of the clinical due -to his shaking hands. (PI. Deck ¶ 7; SAC-¶ 13; Chester Widomski Dep. at Ex. B (“Widomski Dep.”) at 41, 45; Contarino Dep. at 81-83.) Contarino conveyed to Plaintiff that as a result of not participating in the phlebotomy clinical portion, he would be permitted to graduate from the Lab Tech Program, but he would not be permitted to receive a medical technician license. (PI. Deck ¶ 2; Widomski Dep. at 41, 45; Contarino Dep. at 81-83.)
The following day, October 8, 2008, Contarino received faxed clinical training and narratives from Plaintiff, including a urinalysis summary report dated October 1, 2008 and a hematology summary report dated October 8, 2008. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 11-12; PI. 56.1 ¶¶ 8-9; Contarino Aff. ¶ 6, exs. D, E.)
Two key events occurred on October 27, 2008. First, Contarino again notified Plaintiff that he had not submitted the proper clinical documentation. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 13-14; PI. 56.1 ¶¶ 10-11; Contarino Aff. ¶ 7.) Second, Plaintiffs counsel drafted a [538]*538letter to Contarino requesting that Plaintiff be permitted to complete the entire Lab Tech Program, including the phlebotomy clinical. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 15; Ltr. from Michael Sussman at Ex. 1.) It is not clear in which order these events occurred.
On November 4, 2008, Contarino received faxed clinical training summary sheets, specifically a urinalysis summary report and a hematology summary report, both dated October 29, 2008. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 17-18; Pl. 56.1 ¶¶ 14-15; Contarino Aff. ¶ 8, exs. D, E.) Upon receiving the reports, Contarino observed that they appeared to be identical to the October 1 and October 8, 2008 reports with the exception of the new dates and the addition of the letter “Y” in the competency column of the urinalysis report and the word “Yes” in the competency column of the hematology report. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 20-21; Contarino Aff. ¶ 8, exs. D, E.) Sander testified that she signed the urinalysis and hematology reports, dated October 1, 2008 and October 8, 2008 respectively, but that she did not sign the reports dated October 29, 2008, nor did she write the “Y” and ‘Yes” that appear in the competency columns of those reports. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 21-22; Pl. 56.1 ¶¶ 18-19; Sander Dep. at 123.)
The next day, November 5, 2008, after observing the suspicious similarities in the forms, Contarino forwarded the matter to Paul Broadie, Vice President of Student Services, for disciplinary action. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 23; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 21; Contarino Aff. ¶¶8-9, 11; Paul Broadie Aff. at Ex. H (“Broadie Aff.”) ¶ 2.) A few days later, on November 8, 2008, Broadie met with Plaintiff and discussed the alleged violation of the Student Code of Conduct; Plaintiff also conveyed his version of events to Broadie. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 25-28; Pl. 56.1 ¶¶ 21-26; Contarino Aff. ¶ 11; Broadie Aff. ¶ 3.) At the time of this meeting, Broadie was unaware of the October 27, 2008 letter from Plaintiffs counsel to Contarino, except to the extent that Plaintiffs wife suggested that, she thought the purpose of the meeting was to address a letter from Plaintiffs attorney. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 30; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 27; Paul Broadie Dep. at Ex. E (“Broadie Dep.”) at 55-57; Widomski Dep. at 69.)
On November 11, 2008, Broadie offered Plaintiff an informal sanction to resolve the matter: Plaintiff would receive an F and be required to withdraw from the Lab Tech Program. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 29; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 26; Broadie Aff. ¶ 4.) Broadie also indicated that Plaintiff was not’ required to accept the informal sanction and instead could elect a formal hearing. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 31; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 31; Broadie Aff. ¶ 4.) Plaintiff declined the informal sanction and requested the formal hearing. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 32; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 32; Broadie Aff. ¶ 4.)
On December 9, 2008, a Board of Inquiry, composed of three faculty members and four members of the student body with no connection to Plaintiff, met to consider the matter. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 32-33; Pl. 56.1 ¶¶ 32-33; Widomski Dep. at 71; Broadie Aff. ¶ 6.) Plaintiff, Plaintiffs counsel, and Contarino attended the hearing; Broadie was not involved in the proceeding, and Sander did not attend. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 34-35; Pl. 56.1 ¶ 34-35; Pl. Counter 56.1 ¶ 17; Def. Reply Rule 56.1(a) Statement ¶ 17; Widomski Dep. at 71-72; Sander Dep. at 7-8.) The Parties dispute whether Plaintiff and his attorney were permitted meaningful participation in the meeting, but there is no dispute that Plaintiff did provide statements to the Board. (Pl. 56.1 ¶ 34; Pl. Counter 56.1 ¶ 18; SAC ¶25; Widomski Dep. at 72-73; Further Dep. of Chester Widomski at Ex. C at 19-20.)
On December 12, 2008, the Board of Inquiry found Plaintiff guilty of violating the Student Code of Conduct and recommended that he be expelled from the Lab Tech Program, be prohibited from enroll[539]*539ing in any other Allied Health program, and be suspended from OCCC until fall 2009. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 35-36; PI. 56.1 ¶¶35-36; Broadie Aff. ¶ 8.) Broadie adopted this recommendation. (Def. 56.1 ¶ 37; PL 56.1 ¶ 37; Broadie Aff. ¶ 8; Broadie Dep. at 80-81.) Plaintiff appealed the decision to Dr. William Richards, President of OCCC, and after examining documentation and meeting with Plaintiff, Plaintiff’s wife, Broadie, Contarino, and Sander (via speaker phone), Richards upheld the decision on January 14, 2009. (Def. 56.1 ¶¶ 38-41; PL 56.1 ¶¶ 38-41; Broadie Aff. ¶ 10; Ltr. from William Richards at Ex. 4 at 79-80.)
B. Procedural History
On August 27, 2009 Plaintiff filed suit against OCCC in this Court. (Dkt. No. 1.) Following a pre-motion conference, the Court granted Plaintiffs request to file an amended complaint, which was submitted on January 7, 2010. (Dkt. No. 8.) After additional correspondence, Plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint, the operative complaint in the case, on November 29, 2010. (Dkt. No. 10.) Following discovery, Defendant filed the instant motion for summary judgment on March 16, 2012, (Dkt. No. 22), Plaintiff responded on April 19, 2012, (Dkt. No. 33), and Defendant submitted its Reply on May 7, 2012, (Dkt. No. 31). The Court held oral argument on February 8, 2013.
II. Discussion
A. Standard of Review
Summary judgment may be granted where the movant shows that there is “no genuine dispute as to any material fact and that the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a); see also Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322-23, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed.2d 265 (1986). ‘When ruling on a summary judgment motion, the district court must construe the facts in the light most favorable to the non-moving party and must resolve all ambiguities and draw all reasonable inferences against the movant.” Dallas Aerospace, Inc. v. CIS Air Corp., 352 F.3d 775, 780 (2d Cir.2003); see also Tufariello v. Long Island R.R. Co., 458 F.3d 80, 85 (2d Cir.2006) (noting that a court must draw all reasonable inferences in the nonmovant’s favor).
A party seeking summary judgment bears the burden of establishing that no genuine issue of material fact exists. See Atl. Mut. Ins. Co. v. CSX Lines, L.L.C., 432 F.3d 428, 433 (2d Cir.2005). “When the burden of proof at trial would fall on the nonmoving party, it ordinarily- is sufficient for the movant to point to a lack of evidence to go to the trier of fact on an essential element of the nonmovant’s claim. In that event, the nonmoving party must come forward with admissible evidence sufficient to raise a genuine issue of fact for trial in order to avoid summary judgment.” Jaramillo v. Weyerhaeuser Co., 536 F.3d 140, 145 (2d Cir.2008) (internal citations omitted). “When the moving party has carried its burden under Rule 56(c), its opponent must do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts.” Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 586, 106 S.Ct. 1348, 89 L.Ed.2d 538 (1986) (footnote omitted); see also McPherson v. N.Y. City Dep’t of Educ., 457 F.3d 211, 215 n. 4 (2d Cir.2006) (“[Sjpeculation alone is insufficient to defeat a motion for summary judgment.”). A fact is material when “it might affect the outcome of the suit under governing law.” McCarthy v. Dun & Bradstreet Corp., 482 F.3d 184, 202 (2d Cir.2007) (internal quotation marks omitted). At summary judgment, a court is not charged with weighing the evidence and determining its truth, but with determining whether there is a genuine issue for trial. See Westinghouse Elec. Corp. v. N.Y. City Transit Auth., 735 F.Supp. 1205, 1212 (S.D.N.Y.1990). A court’s goal should be to “isolate and dis[540]*540pose of factually unsupported claims.” Celotex, 477 U.S. at 323-24, 106 S.Ct. 2548.
In the Title VII context, courts are to be “particularly cautious” about granting summary judgment to employers in cases where the discriminatory intent of the employer is contested. Schwapp v. Town of Avon, 118 F.3d 106, 110 (2d Cir.1997); see also Schiano v. Quality Payroll Sys., 445 F.3d 597, 603 (2d Cir.2006) (“[A]n extra measure of caution is merited in .. .■ summary judgment in a discrimination action because direct evidence of discriminatory intent is rare and such intent often must be inferred from circumstantial evidence found in affidavits and depositions.” (internal quotation marks omitted)). Nevertheless, “[i]t is ... beyond cavil that summary judgment may be appropriate even in the fact-intensive context of discrimination cases.” Abdu-Brisson v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., 239 F.3d 456, 466 (2d Cir.2001). Thus, while district courts must pay. careful attention to affidavits and depositions which may reveal circumstantial proof of discrimination, see Gallo v. Prudential Residential Servs., Ltd., 22 F.3d 1219, 1224 (2d Cir.1994), courts are not to “ ‘treat discrimination differently from other ultimate questions of fact,’ ” Abdu-Brisson, 239 F.3d at 466 (quoting Reeves v. Sanderson Plumbing Prods., Inc., 530 U.S. 133, 148, 120 S.Ct. 2097, 147 L.Ed.2d 105 (2000)).
B. Analysis
1. Title II Claim
Plaintiff brings his discrimination claim pursuant to Title II of the ADA, which provides in relevant part: “[N]o qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such entity.” 42 U.S.C. §. 12132. Plaintiffs discrimination claim is based entirely on a “perceived disability,” the shaking of Plaintiffs hands; indeed, Plaintiff denies that the hand shaking was ever an actual disability. (SAC ¶¶2, 33.) Defendant argues that Plaintiffs claim fails for two reasons: (1) Title II does not protect perceived disabilities, and (2) even if a “perceived disability” is covered by Title II, OCCC never regarded Plaintiff as having a disability. (Defendant’s Mem. of Law. (“Def. Mem.”) at 6-11.) The Court addresses each argument in turn.
a. Whether Title II Protects a Perceived Disability
Defendant first argues that Title II does not protect individuals with “perceived disabilities,” because the definition of disability is more narrow for Title II than for other parts of the ADA. (Def. Mem. at 6-7.) The Court begins with the statutory scheme and the plain language found therein: The ADA is codified at 42 U.S.C. chapter 126, which includes several sections followed by sub-chapters containing the provisions known as Title I (employment), Title II (public services), and Title III (public accommodations and services operated by private entities). The second section, 42 U.S.C. § 12102(2), defines disability, “as used in this chapter,” with a three-prong test: “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment.” 42 U.S.C. § 12102(2) (1990) (emphasis added).3 As clearly stated in [541]*541the third prong, part (C), being regarded as having a disability, i.e. having a perceived disability, is included in the definition. Moreover, nothing in the statutory scheme suggests that the definition of disability differs between the Titles — on the contrary, the definitions section includes an explicit statement that the listed terms are defined “as used in this chapter.” 42 U.S.C. § 12102.
Consistent with this statutory language, the Supreme Court has suggested that the three-prong definition of disability in § 12102(2) applies to the entire ADA, not just particular Titles. See Toyota Motor Mfg., Kentucky, Inc. v. Williams, 534 U.S. 184, 201, 122 S.Ct. 681, 151 L.Ed.2d 615 (2002) (“[T]he Act’s definition of ‘disability’ applies not only to Title I of the Act .... ”), overturned by legislative action on other grounds, U.S. Pub. L. 110-325 (effective Jan. 1, 2009); Olmstead v. L.C. ex rel. Zimring, 527 U.S. 581, 589 n. 2, 119 S.Ct. 2176, 144 L.Ed.2d 540 (1999) (quoting the entire definition found in § 12102(2) in a Title II case); A majority of lower courts also have cited the full three-prong statutory definition in Title II cases. See Henrietta D. v. Bloomberg, 331 F.3d 261, 274 n. 7 (2d Cir.2003) (“[T]he definition of ‘disability’ applies to all of the ADA.” (internal quotation marks omitted)); Weixel v. Bd. of Educ. of City of New York, 287 F.3d 138, 147 (2d Cir.2002) (analyzing the § 12102(2) definition in considering a Title II ADA claim); Mascetti v. Zozulin, No. 09-CV-963, 2010 WL 1644572, at *4 (D.Conn. Apr. 20, 2010) (same); Giraldi v. Bd. of Parole, State of New York, No. 04-CV-877, 2009 WL 3191530, at *11 (N.D.N.Y. Sept. 30, 2009) (same).
Notwithstanding this authority, Defendant relies on two cases from the Northern District of New York for the proposition that “disability” in Title II only refers to the first two prongs of the § 12102(2) definition and does not include the third “regarded as” prong. (Def. Mem. at 7.) Defendant’s cited cases appear to have emerged from a single .footnote in Farid v. Bouey, 554 F.Supp.2d 301 (N.D.N.Y.2008): “[The ADA] definition section appears to apply only to disability discrimination in the employment setting under Title I of the ADA, and discrimination based upon a perceived disability is not similarly actionable under Title II .... ” Farid, 554 F.Supp.2d at 327 n. 19; accord Lee v. City of Syracuse, 603 F.Supp.2d 417, 441 (N.D.N.Y.2009) (citing Farid, 554 F.Supp.2d at 326-27).4 In reaching this conclusion, the Farid court noted that the Rehabilitation Act “offers essentially the same protections to those with disabilities as does Title II,” Farid, 554 F.Supp.2d at 326, and then cited the slightly different definition of disability found in the Rehabilitation Act regulations, 45 C.F.R. § 84.3, see Farid, 554 F.Supp.2d at 327 n. 19.
This Court respectfully disagrees. The Court does not dispute that the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the ADA have similar purposes, see Garcia v. S.U.N.Y. Health Sciences Ctr. of Brooklyn, 280 F.3d 98, 113 (2d Cir.2001), but the plain language of § 12102 provides that its definitions apply “as used in this chapter,” [542]*542which counsels against replacing the ADA definition of disability with the Rehabilitation Act regulatory definition for the purposes of applying an ADA title. In any event, it appears to this Court that the Rehabilitation Act regulatory definition includes at least some perceived disabilities. See 45 C.F.R. § 84.3(j) (defining a handicapped person as “any person who (i) has a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more major life activities, (ii) has a record of such an impairment, or (in) is regarded as having such an impairment.” (emphasis added)).
Therefore, in light of the weight of controlling authority and the plain language of the ADA itself, the Court finds that the term disability as used in Title II is defined by § 12102, and includes an individual “regarded as” having a disability. See 42 U.S.C. § 12102(1)(C).
b. Whether Defendant Perceived Plaintiff As Having a Disability
Defendant next argues that even if Title II protects perceived disabilities, OCCC did not perceive or regard Plaintiff as having a disability as defined by the ADA. (Def. Mem. at 7-11.)
As a threshold matter, the Court must determine the proper legal framework for evaluating this question. In 2008, Congress enacted the ADA Amendments Act (the “ADAAA”), which went into effect on January 1, 2009. See ADA Amendments Act of 2008, Pub. L. No. 110-325, 122 Stat. 3553 (Sept. 25, 2008). Among other amendments, the ADAAA modified the operative definition, of a perceived disability by adding the following language: “An individual meets the requirement of ‘being regarded as having such an impairment’ if the individual establishes that he or she has been subjected to an action prohibited under this Act because of an actual or perceived physical or mental impairment whether or not the impairment limits or is perceived to limit a major life activity.” Id. § 3(3). The ADAAA also explicitly rejected the holdings in two Supreme Court cases, Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc., 527 U.S. 471, 119 S.Ct. 2139, 144 L.Ed.2d 450 (1999) and Toyota Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc. v. Williams, 534 U.S. 184, 122 S.Ct. 681, 151 L.Ed.2d 615 (2002), stating that those decisions “have narrowed the broad scope of protection intended to be afforded by the ADA.” Id. § 2. Plaintiff block quotes the new statutory language without addressing the question of retroactivity, (Plaintiffs Mem. of Law (“PI. Mem.”) at 7-8), while Defendant argues that the ADAAA is not applicable, because the conduct at issue occurred before the ADAAA went into effect on January 1, 2009, (Def. Mem. at 7, n. 2).
In considering ADA claims based on conduct that occurred prior to 2009, the Second Circuit has applied “the version of the statute in effect during the time period at issue.” Ragusa v. Malverne Union Free Sch. Dist., 381 Fed.Appx. 85, 87 n. 2 (2d Cir.2010); see also Price v. Mount Sinai Hosp., 458 Fed.Appx. 49, 50 (2d Cir.2012) (relying on Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc. because the events at issue occurred prior to the ADAAA superseding it); Fredricksen v. United Parcel Serv., Co., 581 F.3d 516, 521 n. 1 (7th Cir.2009) (explaining that “Congress did not express its intent for [the ADAAA] to apply retroactively, and so we look to the law in place prior to the amendments”); Lytes v. DC Water & Sewer Auth., 572 F.3d 936, 941 (D.C.Cir.2009) (citing the ADAAA’s delayed effective date, other evidence of legislative intent, and the presumption against retroactivity to hold that ADAAA does not apply retroactively); E.E.O.C. v. Agro Distrib., LLC, 555 F.3d 462, 469 n. 8 (5th Cir.2009) (holding that ADAAA does not apply retroactively). Lower courts within the Second Circuit also have [543]*543adopted this approach. See, e.g., Villanti v. Cold Spring Harbor Cent. Sch. Dist., 733 F.Supp.2d 371, 377 (E.D.N.Y.2010) (collecting cases); Primmer v. CBS Studios, Inc., 667 F.Supp.2d 248, 257 n. 5 (S.D.N.Y.2009) (collecting cases and noting that “all courts, in this Circuit and elsewhere, that have addressed the question of whether the ADAAA applies retroactively to claims filed before its effective date have answered in the negative”); Schroeder v. Suffolk Cnty. Cmty. Coll., No. 07-CV-2060, 2009 WL 1748869, at *6 (E.D.N.Y. June 22, 2009) (referencing “the numerous other circuit and district courts that have held that the ADAA amendments do not apply to conduct prior to the effective date of the statute”). In light of this authority, this Court concludes that the ADAAA should not apply retroactively. Here, the relevant conduct at issue occurred in the fall of 2008; therefore, the Court applies the interpretation of disability in existence at that time.5
Prior to the ADAAA, § 12102(2) defined disability as: “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of having such an impairment; or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment.” 42 U.S.C. § 12102(2). Subsection (C)’s reference to “such an impairment” refers to “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual.” See Sutton, 527 U.S. at 489, 119 S.Ct. 2139. “There are two apparent ways in which individuals may fall within this statutory definition: (1) a covered entity mistakenly believes that a person has a physical impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, or - (2) a covered entity mistakenly believes that an actual, nonlimiting impairment substantially limits one or more major life activities.” Id. In either scenario, the “impairment, whether real or imagined, ... is regarded as substantially limiting a major life activity.” Id. at 490, 119 S.Ct. 2139; see also E.E.O.C. v. J.B. Hunt Transp., Inc., 321 F.3d 69, 74 (2d Cir.2003) (explaining that “regarded as” disabled claims require evidence “that [defendant] perceived [plaintiffs] as substantially limited in their ability to perform a major life activity”); Colwell v. Suffolk Cnty. Police Dep’t, 158 F.3d 635, 646 (2d Cir.1998) (explaining that “in order to prevail, the plaintiffs were required to adduce evidence that the [defendant] regarded each [plaintiff] as having an impairment that substantially limited a major life activity”). Thus, the key question is whether there is a genuine issue of material fact as to whether OCCC regarded Plaintiffs shaking hands as substantially limiting a major life activity.
[544]*544Plaintiff does not specify which major life activities OCCC perceived as substantially limited. From Plaintiffs description that “Sander’s perception” of “[Plaintiffs ‘shaking hands’ ” resulted in OCCC “disallowing] [him] from completing the [Lab Tech] program,” (PI. Mem. at 8-9), the Court surmises that Plaintiffs theory is that OCCC regarded Plaintiffs shaking hands as substantially limiting his major life activity of working.
As it appeared in 2008, the Code of Federal Regulations directed that “[w]ith respect to the major life activity of working,” “[t]he term substantially limits means significantly restricted in the ability to perform either a class of jobs or a broad range of jobs in various classes as compared to the average person having comparable training, skills and abilities. The inability to perform a single, particular job does not constitute a substantial limitation in the major life activity of working.” 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(j)(3)(i) (2008); see also Sutton, 527 U.S. at 491, 119 S.Ct. 2139 (“When the major life activity under consideration is that of working, the statutory phrase ‘substantially limits’ requires, at a minimum, that plaintiffs allege they are unable to work in a broad class of jobs.”); Hammond v. Keyspan Energy, 349 Fed.Appx. 629, 631 (2d Cir.2009) (“When the major life activity in question is working, the plaintiff must be perceived as unable to perform a ‘broad class of jobs.’ ”). Therefore, where “the undisputed record evidence demonstrates that [plaintiff] is, at most, regarded as unable to perform only a particular job,” summary judgment is appropriate, because “[t]his is insufficient, as a matter of law, to prove that [plaintiff] is regarded as substantially limited in the major life activity of working.” Murphy v. United Parcel Serv., Inc., 527 U.S. 516, 526, 119 S.Ct. 2133, 144 L.Ed.2d 484 (1999) (affirming grant of summary judgment where “at most, petitioner has shown that he is regarded as unable to perform the job of mechanic only when that job requires driving a commercial motor vehicle” and “has put forward no evidence that he is regarded as unable to perform any mechanic job” (emphasis added)); see also Sutton, 527 U.S. at 493, 119 S.Ct. 2139 (holding that plaintiffs’ exclusion from the job of global airline pilot was “a single job,” and did not constitute a substantial limitation on working where other jobs, such as regional pilot and pilot instructor, were available); J.B. Hunt, 321 F.3d at 75 (holding that driving freight-carrying tractor-trailer trucks over long distances for extended periods of time is a “specific job with specific requirements,” and therefore exclusion from that job was not a substantial limitation on working).
Courts have applied this same analysis to cases involving hand shaking or similar issues to find that there was no perceived disability where the hand condition affected only one particular job, rather than a class of jobs. See E.E.O.C. v. Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co., 406 F.Supp.2d 1228, 1235 (W.D.Okla.2005) (finding no perceived disability where plaintiff had weakened left arm and diminished grip strength, because it did not prevent him from a class of jobs, only the specific job of train conductor), aff'd 211 Fed.Appx. 682 (10th Cir.2006); Cutler v. Hamden Bd. of Educ., 150 F.Supp.2d 356, 358-59 (D.Conn.2001) (collecting cases holding that carpal tunnel syndrome is not a disability under the ADA where it limits only a specific job); cf. Quint v. A.E. Staley Mfg. Co., 172 F.3d 1, 9-13 (1st Cir.1999) (upholding verdict of liability resulting from plaintiffs disability of recurrent and permanent bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome where plaintiff presented evidence that the syndrome prevented her from performing manual labor, plaintiff lived in a region largely offering physically demanding jobs, and plaintiffs education and work experience likely would restrict her to those jobs); Fink v. Printed Circuit Corp., 204 [545]*545F.Supp.2d 119, 124 (D.Mass.2002) (denying summary judgment on question of whether plaintiffs condition of Graves disease was a disability where symptoms included “fatigue, memory loss, and lack of muscle control,” as well as shaking hands); Badgley v. Law Sch. Admission Council, Inc., No. 99-CV-0103, 2000 WL 33225418, at *1 (N.D.Tex. Aug. 24, 2000) (finding disability where plaintiff had “essential tremors that substantially limit his major life activity of writing” as well as a visual impairment causing double vision that impaired the major life activity of seeing).
In this case, the undisputed record evidence demonstrates, that at most, OCCC perceived Plaintiff as unable to complete the phlebotomy portion of his clinical rotation, thus preventing him from receiving a Medical Laboratory Technician license. Plaintiff does not argue, much less set forth any evidence, that Defendant perceived him as unable to perform a class of jobs; on the contrary, the evidence indicates that Defendant regarded Plaintiff as able to perform medical laboratory technician jobs that did not require him to draw blood directly from patients. (Contarino Dep. at 82;; Contarino Aff. ¶ 2; SAC ¶ 13.) Therefore, because the undisputed evidence indicates that Defendant regarded Plaintiff as unable to perform only one specific job, that of a licensed phlebotomist, rather than a class of jobs, Plaintiffs claim of discrimination on the basis of a perceived disability fails, and the Court grants summary judgment with respect to the Title II claims.6
2. Retaliation Claim
Defendant next challenges Plaintiffs claim that OCCC retaliated against him due to his complaints about discriminatory treatment.7 At the outset, it is important to clarify precisely what Plaintiff identifies as the protected conduct and the retaliation. At oral argument, counsel for Plaintiff explained that the protected conduct was the letter from Plaintiffs counsel dated October 27, 2008, and the retaliation was Contarino’s referral of the disciplinary matter to Broadie.8
The ADA provides that: “No person shall discriminate against any individual [546]*546because such individual has opposed any act or practice made unlawful by this chapter or because such individual made a charge, testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding, or hearing under this chapter.” 42 U.S.C. § 12203(a). The Second Circuit has identified four elements for a prima facie case of retaliation: “(i) a plaintiff was engaged in protected activity; (ii) the alleged retaliator knew that plaintiff was involved in protected activity; (iii) an adverse decision or course of action was taken against plaintiff; and (iv) a causal connection exists between the protected activity and the adverse action.” Weixel, 287 F.3d at 148 (internal quotes omitted).
“Claims for retaliation are analyzed under the same burden-shifting framework established for Title VII cases.” Treglia v. Town of Manlius, 313 F.3d 713, 719 (2d Cir.2002). At the prima facie stage, a plaintiffs burden is “de minimis.” Id. Once a plaintiff establishes the prima facie case, the burden shifts to defendant “to articulate a legitimate, non-retaliatory reason for the challenged employment decision.” Id. at 721; see also Summa v. Hofstra Univ., 708 F.3d 115, 125-26 (2d Cir.2013) (describing the burden shifting framework for a summary judgment claim in a Title VII suit). “If a defendant meets this burden, the plaintiff must point to evidence that would be sufficient to permit a rational fact finder to conclude that the employer’s explanation is merely a pretext for impermissible retaliation.” Treglia, 313 F.3d at 721(internal quotation marks omitted).9
[547]*547Defendant challenges the second and fourth elements, arguing that Defendant did not know of Plaintiffs discrimination complaint and that there was no causal connection between the complaint and the disciplinary proceedings.10 (Def. Mem. at
a. Second Element: Defendant’s Knowledge of Protected
Activity
With resPect to the second element> whether Defendant knew that Plaintiff was involved in a Protected activity, Defendant ar^es that Contarino did not know of the October 27, 2008 letter from Plaintiffs counsel at the time of her November 5, 2008 referral to Broadie. In order to satisfy £he knowledge element, it is not neees[548]*548sary that Plaintiff demonstrate that any particular actor knew of the letter, only that Defendant had general corporate knowledge. See Gordon v. New York City Bd. of Educ., 232 F.3d 111, 116 (2d Cir.2000) (“Neither [the Second Circuit] nor any other circuit has ever held that, to satisfy the knowledge requirement, anything more is necessary than general corporate knowledge that the plaintiff has engaged in a protected activity.”); see also Papelino v. Albany Coll. of Pharmacy of Union Univ., 633 F.3d 81, 92 (2d Cir.2011) (explaining that the knowledge requirement is met “if the legal entity was on notice” and that “a jury is entitled to. disregard [individual agents’ claims of unawareness of the protected activity] if they are unreliable”).
During her deposition, Contarino testified that she did not remember when she received the letter dated October 27, 2008, (Contarino Dep. at 84), while Plaintiff testified that he personally believed, based on conversations with his attorney, that the October 27, 2008 meeting occurred “the same day that [Contarino] received the letter,” (Widomski Dep. at 62, 67 (emphasis added).) Drawing reasonable inferences -in favor of Plaintiff, .a jury could determine that Contarino herself, or OCCC generally, may have known of the letter dated October 27, 2008 by the time of the alleged retaliation on November. 5, 2008.11 Therefore, Plaintiff has satisfied his de minimis burden as to the second element.
b. Fourth Element: Causal Connection
With respect to the fourth element, Defendant argues that there was no causal connection between the letter from Plaintiffs counsel and Contarino’s referral.12 (Def. Mem. at 12-17.) Plaintiff relies on [549]*549the temporal proximity between the October 27, 2008 letter and Contarino’s referral to Broadie on November 5, 2008 as evidence for a causal connection. (PI. Mem. at 13.) The Second Circuit has “held that a close temporal relationship between ■ a plaintiffs participation in protected activity and [defendant’s] adverse actions can be sufficient to establish causation.” Treglia, 313 F.3d at 720; see also Reg’l Econ. Cmty. Action Program, Inc. v. City of Middletown, 294 F.3d 35, 54 (2d Cir.2002) (same). Defendant argues, however, that Plaintiff controlled the timing of both the drafting of the letter and the faxing of the documents that began the disciplinary process. (Def. Reply at 6.) But, Plaintiff did not control the timing of the decision to begin the disciplinary process. To the extent Defendant may be suggesting that Plaintiff somehow knew disciplinary proceedings were impending and conspired to send the letter in order to set up a retaliation claim, this theory does not find support from undisputed evidence. Therefore, relying on temporal proximity, Plaintiff has met his de minimis burden of establishing a prima facie case for retaliation.
As described above, where a plaintiff establishes a prima facie case, the burden shifts back to the defendant. See Treglia, 313 F.3d at 721. Here, Defendant meets this burden by articulating a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for Contarino’s referral; namely her good faith belief-that. Plaintiff violated the student code of conduct by falsifying documents. (Def. Mem. at 13-17.) The Court finds that Contarino’s claimed good faith belief is supported by the record. The October 1 and October 29 urinalysis reports are literally carbon copies of each other with exactly the same contents except an altered date and the addition of a “Y” indicating competency on the latter report. (Contarino Aff. at ex. D.) The same is true of the October 8 and October 29 hematology reports with the exception of an added “29” written over the “8” in the date field as well as a ‘Tes” indicating competency in the latter - report. (Contarino Aff. at ex. E.) Additionally, the numbers of procedures observed and performed are identical in the two sets of reports, belying Plaintiffs explanation that he altered the forms to add progress to the prior reports. (Def. Mem. at 16; Widomski Dep. 101-02.) These suspicious submissions provide powerful and undisputed evidence for Contarino’s good faith belief that Plaintiff doc[550]*550tored the documents as the reason for her referral of the matter to Broadie.
As such, it matters not if Plaintiff did not forge these reports, as he insists. (SAC ¶ 25; PI. Mem. at 13.) Rather, what does matter is that Defendant has offered evidence that Contarino had a good faith basis for believing that Plaintiff had falsified the new reports.13 See Dister v. Continental Grp., Inc., 859 F.2d 1108, 1116 (2d Cir.1988) (explaining that because “[evidence that [defendant] made a poor business judgment in [its adverse employment decision] generally is insufficient to establish a genuine issue of fact as to the credibility of the [defendant’s] reasons ... [,] the reasons tendered need not be well-advised, but merely truthful”); Chu v. Tex. S. Univ., No. 10-CV-2582, 2012 WL 256419, at *6 (S.D.Tex. Jan. 27, 2012) (granting summary judgment in Title VII case where “[defendant articulated a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for discharge: [p]laintiff allegedly plagiarized a scientific grant proposal”); Duckett v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., No. 07-CV-6204, 2009 WL 995614, at *11-12 (W.D.N.Y. Apr. 14, 2009) (noting that “when analyzing a pretext claim the inquiry is whether the employer’s stated reason is the actual reason for the challenged action and not whether the employer’s stated reason for its decision is ill-advised, mistaken, or unreasonable,” and granting summary judgment where defendant claimed that it terminated plaintiff due to her unauthorized use of a discount, a claim plaintiff disputed (citing Dister, 859 F.2d at 1116)).
Once Defendant has met its burden, the question becomes whether Plaintiff has established sufficient evidence such that a rational factfinder could conclude that Defendant’s “explanation [was] merely pretext for impermissible retaliation.” See Treglia, 313 F.3d at 721 (internal quotation marks omitted). In discussing a plaintiffs burden at this stage, the Supreme Court has noted in the context of Title VII that “a reason cannot be proved to be ‘a pretext for discrimination’ unless it is shown both that the reason was false, and that discrimination was the real reason.” St. Mary’s Honor Ctr. v. Hicks, 509 U.S. 502, 515, 113 S.Ct. 2742, 125 L.Ed.2d 407 (1993) (emphasis in original). Put differently, “[i]t is hot enough ... to disbelieve the [defendant]; the factfinder must believe the plaintiffs explanation of intentional discrimination.” Id. at 519, 113 S.Ct. 2742 (emphasis in original). As the Second Circuit very recently explained, “there are two distinct ways for a plaintiff to prevail — either by proving that a discriminatory motive, more likely than not, motivated the defendants or by proving both that the reasons given by the defendants are not true and that discrimination is the real reason for the actions.” Summa, 708 F.3d at 129 (internal quotation marks omitted). Consistent with this axiom, courts within the Second Circuit have regularly held that in order to survive summary judgment, Plaintiff must offer some evidence that the adverse action was motivated, at least in part, by discrimination. See Weinstock v. Columbia Univ., 224 F.3d 33, 42 (2d Cir.2000) (explaining that “[f]or the case to continue, the plaintiff must then come forward with evidence that the defendant’s proffered, non-discriminatory reason is a mere pretext for actual discrimination” (emphasis added)); Renz v. Grey Adver., Inc., 135 F.3d 217, 222 n. 3 [551]*551(2d Cir.1997) (“[A] discrimination plaintiff may not succeed by proving only that a proffered explanation is false but must prove that discrimination motivated the adverse action .... ”); Christoff v. Saturn Bus. Sys., No. 10-CV-8505, 2013 WL 394131, at *7 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 1, 2013) (granting summary judgment and explaining that “the record is devoid of any evidence that would suggest that Defendants’ stated reasons for [their] actions are pretext or that Plaintiff was discriminated against in any way on the basis of her gender”); McPhatter v. New York City, No. 06-CV-1181, 2009 WL 2412980 at *9 (E.D.N.Y. July 30, 2009) (granting summary judgment because “[defendants have offered a nondiscriminatory reason for [plaintiffs suspension], ... even if a jury were to disbelieve the reason offered by defendant, it could not rationally find that this reason was a pretext for discriminating against her in violation of the ADA”); Webster v. Pomperaug Reg’l Sch. Dist. 15, No. 04-CV-1265, 2007 WL 987539, at *16 (D.Conn. Mar. 30, 2007) (“Even if [defendant’s] asserted reason is false, no reasonable jury could conclude, based on the record as a whole, that the plaintiff was terminated in retaliation for requesting accommodations or filing a complaint .... ”); cf. Gorzynski v. JetBlue Airways Corp., 596 F.3d 93, 109 (2d Cir.2010) (holding that “a reasonable juror could find, not only that the explanations given by [defendant] for [plaintiffs] termination were pretextual, but also that,’ together with [defendant’s] passing comment ... it was her age that was the ‘but for’ cause of [plaintiffs] termination”). It is not always necessary that a plaintiff set forth specific evidence showing retaliation: credible evidence that a defendant’s explanation is false along with a strong prima facie case may support an inference that the adverse action was motivated by discrimination. See Reeves v. Sanderson Plumbing Prods., Inc., 530 U.S. 133, 147-48, 120 S.Ct. 2097, 147 L.Ed.2d 105 (2000) (explaining that in case where plaintiff made a “substantial showing” that defendant’s explanation was false, trier of fact could infer that adverse action was motivated by discrimination); see also Reg’l Econ. Cmty. Action Program, 294 F.3d at 54 (vacating district court’s grant of summary judgment where “defendants offer no evidentiary support for the non-retaliatory reasons they proffer, and [the court found] no indication in the record” that those reasons were true).
In this case, Plaintiff has not presented any evidence that Defendant’s explanation is a false pretext for a retaliatory motive. At oral argument, counsel for Plaintiff argued that Contarino and Sander conspired to retaliate against Plaintiff, and in response to questioning from the Court, counsel identified as supporting evidence only Contarino and Sander’s “close” relationship as shown by their previous discussion of Plaintiffs shaking hands.14 While [552]*552Contarino and Sander admittedly discussed Plaintiffs “shaking hand problem” early in the semester, (Sander Dep. at 58-59), Plaintiffs extrapolation that Contarino and Sander then jointly decided to retaliate against Plaintiff following the October 27, 2008 letter from his counsel finds no support in the record and is just pure speculation. In fact, there is not even evidence that Sander knew of the October 27, 2008 letter at the time of the referral nor is there any indication that Sander had any role in the referral itself, much less one motivated by a retaliatory animus.15
Similarly, Plaintiffs summary judgment papers do not identify any evidence beyond his personal belief: “I believe Mrs. C[o]ntarino’s actions in bringing charges against me were in retaliation for having complained about the discriminatory treatment .... ” (PI. Deck ¶ 14.) These conclusory assertions alone are insufficient to allow the jury to infer a retaliatory motive. See Jeffries v. Verizon, No. 10-CV-2686, 2012 WL 4344197, at *20 (E.D.N.Y. Aug. 31, 2012) (“[Plaintiff] does not provide any evidence to support the contention that his transfer was in any way related to his hearing impairment or any other activity protected under the ADA. Therefore, the record contains no evidence from which a reasonable factfinder could conclude that [defendant’s] stated reason for transferring [plaintiff] was a mere pretext for its real intention to retaliate.”), adopted by 2012 WL 4344188 (E.D.N.Y. Sept. 21, 2012); Schupbach v. Shinseki, 905 F.Supp.2d 422, 437 (E.D.N.Y.2012) (“[P]laintiff cannot simply substitute utter speculation for the competent proof that would be necessary to permit rational inferences by a jury of discrimination or retaliation.”); McNamara v. Tourneau, Inc., 496 F.Supp.2d 366, 379 (S.D.N.Y.2007) (“A motion for summary judgment [in the instant ADA case] may not be defeated by speculation and conclusory assertions.”).
Nor is the evidence that Plaintiff presented in support of his prima facie case sufficient at this stage to rebut Defendant’s explanation. First, Plaintiffs statement that he did not fabricate the documents, even taken as true, does not actually rebut Contarino’s claim of a good faith belief that Plaintiff did fabricate them. Plaintiffs claim and Contarino’s belief are not mutually exclusive: Plaintiff may not have fabricated the documents, but Contarino could still have a good faith belief, albeit mistaken, that he did. See Wontrobski v. S. Huntington Union Free Sch. Dist., No. 02-CV-3755, 2005 WL 1785261, at *5 (E.D.N.Y. June 26, 2005) (“Plaintiff’s] sole argument for pretext is that she was undeserving of her unsatisfactory evaluations .... However, Plaintiffs subjective disagreement with [her] reviews is not a viable basis for a discrimination claim.” (second alteration in original) (internal quotation marks omitted)); O’Connor v. Coll. of Saint Rose, No. 04-CV-0318, 2005 WL 2739106, at *7 (N.D.N.Y. Oct. 24, 2005) (granting summary judgment based on Defendant’s “legitimate, non-retaliatory reason for [553]*553[plaintiffs] failing grades — plagiarism” and noting that “Plaintiff has failed to sustain his ultimate burden of demonstrating that Defendant’s claim of plagiarism was a pretext for unlawful discrimination,” because “Defendant’s proffered reason appears to be true,” and “Plaintiff has not otherwise proffered sufficient evidence from which a fair-minded trier of fact could reasonably conclude that Defendant failed Plaintiff in retaliation for his filing grievances or claims of discrimination”). Indeed, nothing in the record undermines Contarino’s claim of a good faith belief that Plaintiff falsified the documents; on the contrary, as noted above, a comparison of the urinalysis and hematology summary reports provides evidence from which one easily could conclude that the October 29 reports were falsified, as the Board of Inquiry itself determined. Put simply, Plaintiffs explanation of the markings on the reports is internally inconsistent and belied by the documents themselves, and therefore Plaintiff has failed to refute Contarino’s claim of a good faith belief. See Shepheard v. New York City Corr. Dep’t, 360 Fed.Appx. 249, 251 (2d Cir.2010) (affirming grant of summary judgment where plaintiff did not establish that the “proffered reason for [the adverse action],” a disciplinary charge, was false or “a pretext for discrimination”); Cf. Treglia, 313 F.3d at 722 (summary judgment denied where statements by defendant showed discrimination and record evidence refuted defendant’s explanation); Saviano, 2011 WL 4561184, at *7 (finding evidence of pretext where record itself suggested that defendant’s explanation was false, and the court found it “abundantly clear ... that [defendants] disliked plaintiff’).
Second, while temporal proximity may be sufficient for a prima facie case, it is insufficient to demonstrate retaliatory intent given the undisputed evidence of Defendant’s explanation. See Reilly v. Metro-N. Commuter R.R. Co., No. 93-CV-7317, 1996 WL 665620, at *14 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 15, 1996) (“The timing of events alone, even if sufficient to meet plaintiffs prima facie burden, cannot defeat summary judgment in the face of defendant’s proffered legitimate reason.”); see also Bombero v. Warner-Lambert Co., 142 F.Supp.2d 196, 210 n. 28 (D.Conn.2000) (collecting cases). The record reveals that the inquiry into Plaintiffs failure to comply with the course requirements and the impact of his shaking hands condition began long before the letter from Plaintiffs counsel. As early as October 7, 2008, twenty days before Plaintiffs counsel’s letter, Contarino met with Plaintiff to discuss his missing reports, a discussion apparently sufficiently serious to warrant a signed agreement stating that Plaintiff would receive an F in the course if he did not submit the required documentation. (Contarino Aff. at ex. C.) The fact that a followup meeting in which Plaintiff agreed to submit additional reports occurred the same day that a letter from Plaintiffs counsel was drafted and that, shortly thereafter, Contarino scrutinized Plaintiff’s facially suspect reports does not, by itself, rebut Defendant’s explanation.
Therefore, because Plaintiff has not offered sufficient evidence to rebut Defendant’s credible explanation for Contarino’s referral, the Court finds that Plaintiff has failed to establish that there is enough disputed evidence to substantiate the fourth element of causation, and the Court grants summary judgment for Defendant as to the retaliation claim.
3. State Law Claim
Because there are no remaining federal claims in the lawsuit, the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s remaining state law claim pursuant to the New York Human Rights Law section 296(2)(a). (SAC ¶33.) See 28 [554]*554U.S.C. § 1367(c); Kolari v. New York-Presbyterian Hosp., 455 F.3d 118, 122 (2d Cir.2006) (explaining that “in the usual case in which all federal-law claims are eliminated before trial, the balance of factors ... will point toward declining to exercise jurisdiction over the remaining state-law claims” (internal quotation marks omitted)).16
III. Conclusion
For the reasons stated herein, Defendant’s motion for summary judgment is GRANTED. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the pending motion, (Dkt. No. 22), and close this case.
SO ORDERED.
