1Opinion of the Court
TACHA, Circuit Judge.
Ann Gardetto bought this suit against her former employer, Eastern Wyoming College (“EWC”), and EWC’s former president, Roy Mason, after they demoted and suspended her. Gardetto claims that EWC and Mason violated her First Amendment rights of free speech and free association by retaliating against her for criticizing the policies of Mason and EWC. In addition to her federal claims, she brought two claims under Wyoming common law: one against Mason for defamation and the second against EWC for breach of its duty of good faith and fair dealing.
