Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The director determined that the petitioner's awards were academic in nature rather than for excellence in the field, and that there was insufficient evidence that membership in a professional society required outstanding achievements. The petitioner also failed to provide evidence of published material about her work or that her participation as a judge of others' work was the result of direct solicitation based on her own reputation.
