The company was established in 1802 by Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours (1739-1817) and his son Éleuthère Irénée du Pont (1771-1834); it began with the production of gunpowder. The du Ponts purchased a mill site on the banks of the Brandywine River just north of Wilmington, Delaware. During wartime the company was a major supplier for the United States government. During peacetime, the company marketed their products toward sportsmen and hunters. Throughout the 1900s and 1910s, the company shifted its focus away from gunpowder production and toward chemistry innovations. The DuPont Company's Publicity Bureau was originally created on February 21, 1916, at the urging of company executive, R.R.M. Carpenter Sr. (1877-1949) to deal with issues raised by the great increase of business spawned by World War I. Prior to this time, publicity had been handled by the Advertising - Page 3- E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, Public Affairs Department records 1410 Division, created in 1911. Charles K. Weston (1870-1947) of the Philadelphia Public Ledger was the first Director of Publicity. The Publicity Bureau became the Publicty Department in October 1935. It was renamed the Public Relations Department on April 1, 1938, and the Public Affairs Department in 1973. It was combined with the Marketing Communications Department to form the External Affairs Department on January 1, 1986. During the 1930s, the Public Affairs Department attempted to counter the Nye Commission investigation, which labeled the DuPont Company as a "merchant of death." It developed the slogan "Better Things for Better Living through Chemistry" and developed the DuPont Cavalcade of America on radio. The Community Relations Division, established in 1946, published the magazine Better Living. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Contents The Public Affairs Department records contain biographical sketches of deceased officers, employees, and du Pont family members, as well as histories of company plants, predecessor companies, and all line and staff departments. The alphabetical history file contains press releases, memoranda, and pamphlets that were assembled for various public relations campaigns. Dr. James Karr Hunt reference files series are the papers of the technical advisor in the Public Affairs Department. Arranged into four subseries: Product files; Carl Kaufmann energy files; General and historical files; and Court suits.

General and historical files subseries contains information about plants and products.

    BLUE HEN CHEMIST University of Delaware, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Annual Alumni Newsletter NUMBER 41 AUGUST 2014 JOHN L. BURMEISTER, EDITOR ON THE COVER THREE Newly Renovated Organic Laboratories! # 3 8 - P AGE I BLU E H E N C H E MIST ON THE COVER One of the three newly-renovated Organic Chemistry teaching laboratories (QDH 302) is shown. Work on the labs (QDH 112, 318, 320) started on May, 2013 and was completed in February of this year. The refurbishment of the labs was a crucial step in the ongoing revision of the Organic Chemistry laboratory curricula. The additional fume hoods allow each student to conduct experiments individually while minimizing their exposure to chemical reagents. The transparent glass construction helps teaching assistants observe students while they work. The hoods are equipped with inert-gas lines, which can allow the students to work with air-sensitive compounds and learn advanced laboratory techniques. The hoods are also equipped with vacuum lines, which obviate the need for water aspirators and dramatically reduce the labs' water usage. The lab design also allows for instrumentation modules to be swapped in and out according to the needs of the experiment. Carts are designed to house instruments such as gas chromatographs and infrared spectrometers as well as any necessary computer equipment. These carts can then be wheeled into docking areas that have been fitted with the necessary inert gas and electrical lines. The design expands the range of possible instrumentation the students can use while occupying a small footprint of lab space. The labs also feature large flat screen monitors, wireless internet, and computer connectivitiy that will enable the use of multimedia demonstrations and tablet computing.

The author also thanks Stephen Bainbridge, Lawrence Hamermesh, David Katz, Marty Lipton, Andy Lubin, Sarah Lubin, and the two anonymous referees for excellent feedback and incisive comments on the draft. Electronic copy available at: https://ssrn.com/abstract=2906875 One of the most tired debates in American corporate law has been about the ends of corporate governance. Must, within the limits of their legal discretion, boards of directors act for the best interests of stockholders? Or may they exercise their discretion to advance, as an end in itself, the best interests of other corporate constituencies, such as the corporation’s employees, home communities, and consumers? The reason this debate is a bit tired is because it is not about whether corporate statutes should be amended to give equal credence to other constituencies than stockholders, it is about arguing that corporate laws that give only rights to stockholders somehow implicitly empower directors to regard other constituencies as equal ends in governance. In other words, the debate involves large doses of wish fulfillment, with advocates for other constituencies arguing that the law already is what they in fact think it ought to be.
