Before ARNOLD, FAGG, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Janice Chaparro appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in her action against her former employer, Philander Smith College (PSC),
and its president, Dr. Trudie Kibbe Reed (collectively, defendants). The district
court’s order granting defendants’ motion for summary judgment thoroughly
addressed and correctly disposed of each of the arguments Ms. Chaparro presented
in opposition to the motion. Arguments raised for the first time on appeal are waived.

      1
       The Honorable G. Thomas Eisele, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas.
See Int’l Bhd. of Elec. Workers v. Hope Elec. Corp., 380 F.3d 1084, 1096 (8th Cir.
2004) (declining to review arguments not asserted in opposition to summary
judgment motion); Grenier v. Cyanamid Plastics, Inc., 70 F.3d 667, 678 (1st Cir.
1995) (court may treat issue raised in complaint, but not asserted in opposition to
summary judgment, as waived). We affirm the judgment, see 8th Cir. R. 47B, and
deny as moot the appellees’ motion to strike.
                        ______________________________
