Contrary to what several uninformed participants above state, "distinguished professor" is a specific job title that clearly and explicitly passes #C5. At my university, it is reserved for faculty with a very high level of accomplishment; for instance, for scientists, it is roughly at the level of being in the National Academy of Sciences (and well past the level needed to pass #C1 or #C3 via lesser society fellowships). It's more difficult to assess that level in the humanities but I think we can safely assume that Trites' campus did so. And although the article could use significant improvement, I expect that if that effort were made then it would uncover many reviews of her books, enough to also pass
