Raymond Russell appeals the District Court’s 1 dismissal of his suit for injunction under 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981 and 1983 against the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas. Russell claims that the Board lowered the age of mandatory retirement that had previously been in effect, without giving him notice and an opportunity to be heard. This action, he asserts, deprived him of property without due process of law.

The District Court held in a thorough opinion, Russell v. Board of Trustees of University of Arkansas, 502 F.Supp. 916 (E.D.Ark. 1980), that Russell had a “property interest” entitled to protection under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, but that he had received all the process that was his due. The District Court held in particular that the Board had taken reasonable steps to give Russell appropriate notice of its action. We affirm, substantially for the reasons given by the District Court. See 8th Cir.R. 14. The action of the Board of Trustees was quasi-legislative, and Russell received at least as much notice as was required.

Affirmed.
