PER CURIAM:
Dr. Mary J. Stephens-Frazier appeals the district
court’s order granting Defendant’s motion to dismiss or, in the
alternative, for summary judgment on her race discrimination,
hostile work environment harassment and retaliation claims, in
violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2006), and state law
claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress, and its
order denying her Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion for
reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
orders. See Stephens-Frazier v. National Inst. of Health, No.
1:07-cv-00435-JFM (D. Md. filed May 19, 2008, entered May 20,
2008; May 30, 2008). 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
