It doesn't, but that does not mean that the PSF can be unconcerned about the possibility that some of its efforts unrelated to the grant may be arbitrarily determined to cross some unwritten "no DEI" rule. A small organization cannot take the risk that funds already spent are clawed back.

Meanwhile, we are keeping a close eye on comments on this item. This is not aimed at "jhe" in particular, but all of the commenters. Please pay close attention to the guidelines in the comment editor before posting.
