United States Fourth Circuit

In a Title VII action alleging retaliation, religious and speech-based discrimination in relation to the decision not to promote plaintiff to the position of full professor, summary judgment in favor of defendants is affirmed in part and reversed in part where district court properly held that plaintiff failed to satisfy his burdens under both Hill v. Lockheed and McDonnell-Douglas, but erred in its McVey analysis of the First Amendment claim.
