As a Westhampton College student in the 1930s, Gertrude Murrel duPont (Howland) was upset that some of her classmates could not attend cultural events that she enjoyed because of financial reasons. She established the duPont Fund in the 1950s, which is still in effect today, to allow financially restricted students to enjoy cultural events.
