See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Francis Saitta appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment to Morgan State University and dismissing his em-

ployment discrimination complaint. We have reviewed the record and

the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Saitta

v. Morgan State University, No. CA-99-1971 (D. Md. Jan. 7, 2000).*

We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal conten-

tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                          AFFIRMED

     *
       Although the district court’s order is dated January 6,
2000, the district court’s records show that it was entered on the
docket sheet on January 7, 2000. Pursuant to Rules 58 and 79(a) of
the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is the date that the order
was physically entered on the docket sheet that we take as the
effective date of the district court’s decision. See Wilson v.
Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
