Heading: The reprimand letter

Text: On August 26, 2004, after the thirty reports of contact had been filed, Dr. Brian Kawahara issued a letter titled “Notice of Proposed Reprimand” to UcheUwakwe.3 The letter discussed several specific incidents in which Uche-Uwakwe was alleged to have acted unprofessionally or disrespectfully. Dr. Kawahara met with Uche-Uwakwe, read the letter to her, gave her two copies, let her read the letter, and asked her to sign and date it.4 They did not discuss the matter, and the meeting was adjourned. Uche-Uwakwe has not presented any evidence that this reprimand letter 2 II ER 190-223. 3 II ER 180-83. 4 II ER 67-68. affected the compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of her employment, see Davis, 520 F.3d at 1089, or that the letter was disseminated or undeserved, see Brooks, 229 F.3d at 928-29. Accordingly, the reprimand letter does not qualify as an adverse employment action.
