Whatever diversity sections were required in grant proposals are nothing compared to the situation right now.

If your guy couldn’t say stuff like we will do outreach to local CCs, will design summer research programs, etc, then they’re just not a very good grant writer

Why attach this stuff to every grant? This guy was dealing was dealing cutting edge research using multi million dollar equipment. Stuff only a few people world wide know about. That’s difficult enough.

This leads to purely performative diversity statements that mean nothing in the real world.

Sounds like a good thing to try to increase diversity and recruitment.
