OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

William P. Fisher appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment to the defendants in Fisher's age discrimination and due process claims. Our review of the record, the district court's memorandum opinion, and the arguments of counsel discloses that this appeal is without merit.* Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Fisher v. Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College, No.92-5-A-C-V (W.D. N.C. July 16, 1993).

AFFIRMED

*

In his opening brief, Fisher raises an equal protection claim. Inasmuch as this claim was not raised before the district court, we decline to consider it. See Fowler v. Land Management Group, Inc., 978 F.2d 158, 164 (4th Cir.1992)
