United States First Circuit

In plaintiff's gender discrimination, retaliation and hostile work environment claim against a university, district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the university is affirmed where: 1) given the lack of any evidence suggesting that the university's proffered reason was pretextual, plaintiff's gender discrimination claim fails as a matter of law; 2) university's denial of plaintiff's particular request for office space did not amount to a materially adverse employment action; and 3) the hostile work environment claim fails as a matter of law.
