Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met at least three of the required regulatory criteria for the classification. While the Director acknowledged he met the criteria for judging and authorship of scholarly articles, the AAO found the evidence insufficient for the criteria of nationally recognized awards, memberships in associations requiring outstanding achievement, and published material about the petitioner in major media.
