UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 17-1588 KRIESTA L. WATSON, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. SHENANDOAH UNIVERSITY; BOARD OF TRUSTEES, Defendants - Appellees, and BRYON GRIGSBY; MARIE LANDES; CALVIN ALLEN; KAREN ABRAHAM; STEVEN HUMPRIES; TRACEY FITZSIMMONS, Defendants. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Harrisonburg. Elizabeth Kay Dillon, District Judge. (5:14-cv-00022-EKD-JCH) Submitted: September 27, 2017 Before KING, AGEE, and KEENAN, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Decided: October 26, 2017 Kriesta L. Watson, Appellant Pro Se. Catherine Jackson Huff, Paul Granger Klockenbrink, Monica Taylor Monday, GENTRY LOCKE, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Kriesta L. Watson appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and granting Defendants’ motion for summary judgment in her civil action. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Watson’s motion to appoint counsel and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Watson v. Shenandoah Univ., No. 5:14-cv-00022-EKD-JCH (W.D. Va. Mar. 29, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 3
