Subject: [RESADM-L] Mis-identification of race/ethnicity on NSF grant proposal

Has anyone had experience with a PI possibly mis-identifying his/her
race/ethnicity on the NSF PI/PD info form? Other than notifying NSF, what steps
were deemed to be appropriate? Any background anyone might be able to provide on
this issue would be much appreciated.
