Appellant, Dr. Nyla Ptomey, appeals a summary judgment granted in favor of appellee Texas Tech
University on each of her claims of unlawful age and sex discrimination and retaliation. Finding by its
traditional motion for summary judgment Texas Tech conclusively proved a legitimate, non-discriminatory
reason for the adverse employment actions of which Ptomey complains and that the evidence does not
raise a fact issue of pretext, we will affirm.
