Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO found the evidence for judging the work of others insufficient, concluding that evaluating student dissertations was an inherent part of her university professor role and her role in judging course participants for a private company lacked independent confirmation. The director determined the petitioner had not established that her contributions were of major significance to the field.
