Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for the required number of regulatory criteria. The AAO agreed with the Director that the evidence submitted for lesser awards, memberships, and judging the work of others was insufficient. The awards were not shown to be nationally or internationally recognized for excellence, new evidence for memberships was not considered on appeal, and her role as a judge was not detailed enough to be distinguished from routine academic duties.
