ROSS, Circuit Judge.
This is an appeal from a summary judgment for defendants, school officials at the University of Arkansas. Mrs. McSpadden, the wife of a faculty member of the Music Department at the University, sought relief, including damages, under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, from the University’s nepotism regulation, which prohibited employment of “any person in any capacity if such person is related by marriage or blood to any other employee in the same department or if either one of the related employees in the same or different departments will have direction or supervision over the other.” 1
