    2001 ANNUAL REPORT DuPont at 200 In 2002, DuPont celebrates its 200th anniversary. The company that began as a small, family firm on the banks of Delaware’s Brandywine River is today a global enterprise operating in 70 countries around the world. From a manufacturer of one main product – black powder for guns and blasting – DuPont grew through a remarkable series of scientific leaps into a supplier of some of the world’s most advanced materials, services and technologies. Much of what we take for granted in the look, feel, and utility of modern life was brought to the marketplace as a result of DuPont discoveries, the genius of DuPont scientists and engineers, and the hard work of DuPont employees in plants and offices, year in and year out. Along the way, there have been some exceptional constants. The company’s core values of safety, health and the environment, ethics, and respect for people have evolved to meet the challenges and opportunities of each era, but as they are lived today they would be easily recognizable to our founder. The central role of science as the means for gaining competitive advantage and creating value for customers and shareholders has been consistent. It would be familiar to any employee plucked at random from any decade of the company’s existence. Yet nothing has contributed more to the success of DuPont than its ability to transform itself in order to grow. Whether moving into high explosives in the latter 19th century, into chemicals and polymers in the 20th century, or into biotechnology and other integrated sciences today, DuPont has always embraced change as a means to grow.

  • To Whom It May Concern, I Am a Learning Specialist at Tower Hill School. I Began My Career in Education at the Lab School in Washington D.C
    From: Samantha Spruance To: infocso Subject: "Support for Keeping Gateway Lab School" Date: Monday, December 08, 2014 2:34:45 PM To whom it may concern, I am a learning specialist at Tower Hill School. I began my career in education at The Lab School in Washington D.C. - The school that Gateway is modeled after! I am shocked and saddened to learn that Gateway is closing because the students are not meeting state test scores. State testing will not measure a child with learning disabilities ability! The Gateway school provides the best education model possible. When I started with the students at The Lab School, they were all reading 3-4 years below grade level. They all graduated from The Lab School, attended college and are successful, hard working citizens. It does not make sense to deprive them of the resources that they need and put them into an educational setting that does not provide what they need. Thank you, Samantha Spruance Regarding: Kevin MacMicking, 5th grader at Gateway Lab School When I first heard that Gateway Lab School would be closing at the end of the year, I was deeply saddened. Our son is a 5th grader who attends Gateway. He started in 3rd grade. My husband and I have seen significant achievements since he started there. As you know, Gateway Lab School starts providing education for grade three up through grade 8. The primary population of this school has either an IEP (60%) or a 504 (9%). Children come to this school because they are not achieving academic or social success in their feeder pattern school.

    Effect of stoichiometric ratio on the interfacial polymerization of polyamides Why worry about polymer science? John Droske Polymer Education "Approximately 50% of all chemists will work with polymers at some time in their careers," says John Droske, professor of chemistry at the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point and director of the POLYED National Information Center for Polymer Education. "Because polymer science touches on many areas, it is important for chemists to be trained in polymer science."
