JOHNSON, Senior Circuit Judge:
This case arises on appeal following a jury verdict in favor of defendant-appellee Spring Hill College (“Spring Hill”) on plaintiff-appellant Jennifer Wood’s claim that Spring Hill discriminated against her on the basis of her handicap, in violation of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C.A. § 794 (West Supp.1992) (“section 504”). On appeal, Wood raises four challenges to the jury instructions given by the district court. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the district court’s entry of judgment in accordance with the jury verdict.
