Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three of ten evidentiary criteria. While the Director found two criteria met, the AAO disagreed, concluding the petitioner only satisfied the criterion for judging the work of others. The AAO found the submitted articles were not substantially about the petitioner or were not published in major media, and the petitioner did not establish a leading or critical role for a distinguished organization.
