The appeal was dismissed because the proffered position was not established to be a specialty occupation. The petitioner's requirement for a bachelor's degree in broad and dissimilar fields like 'Education or Social Sciences' failed to demonstrate that the position requires a body of highly specialized knowledge in a specific specialty.
