James N. SYCAMORE, Appellant, v. FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSITY, acting For and on Behalf of The Board of Regents, a public corporation of the State of Florida, Anthony J. Catanese and Ondina Felipe, Appellees.
    No. 96-2010.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    April 16, 1997.
    John W. Bowen, Largo, for appellant.
    Ondina Felipe, General Counsel and Lynda Quillen, Associate General Counsel, Boca Ra-ton, for appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

The employment contract between appellant and the university adopted the terms of the parties’ settlement agreement as a special condition. By that agreement, appellant unconditionally tendered his resignation to the university, which accepted it for a time certain, several years after the execution of the documents. This resignation is inconsistent with appellant’s entitlement to participate in the phased retirement program, which contemplates a continuation of the employment relationship between a faculty member and the university. We affirm the summary final judgment entered in favor of appellees.

WARNER, POLEN and GROSS, JJ., concur.
