PER CURIAM:
     Rodney Brownlow, who was terminated as an employee of Computer

Associates, appeals an order of the district court granting judg-

ment as a matter of law to Computer Associates on his claims of

racial discrimination in assigning salary levels, hostile work

environment, and retaliatory discharge in violation of 42 U.S.C.
§ 1981 and 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq. (Title VII). See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 50(a)(1). After consideration of the parties' briefs, the rec-

ord, and the oral arguments of counsel, we conclude that the dis-

trict court correctly granted judgment as a matter of law to

Computer Associates on each of Brownlow's claims. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court.     See Brownlow v.
Computer Assocs. Int'l, Inc., No. 96-1393 (E.D. Va. Feb. 28, 1996).
