PER CURIAM:

            Sharon    Thomas    appeals     the    district     court’s      orders

dismissing     her     complaint       alleging      discriminatory          hiring

practices    and   denying     her   Fed.   R.    Civ.   P.   59(e)   motion     for

reconsideration.       We    have     reviewed     the   record   and     find   no

reversible error.       Accordingly, although we grant Thomas leave

to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.         Thomas v. Duke Univ., No. 3:11-cv-00387-

FDW-DCK   (W.D.N.C.     Nov.    28,    2012).       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
