When US President Barack Obama declared in his 2009 inaugural address, "We will restore science to its rightful place," many applauded. The US has led the world in research, innovation, and education in the medical sciences.

Nevertheless, we cannot afford to assume that preeminence, or even excellence, will persist without attention and cultivation.

AbstractThis article examines firms' motivations for offering investors the opportunity to purchase initial shares of stock directly from the company by joining the firm's dividend reinvestment plan (DRP). The results of both a telephone survey of Investor Relations Departments and analysis of plan prospectuses indicate that firms offer such no‐load DRPs with the objective of broadening their shareholder base. Moreover, additional analysis shows that firms which implement no‐load DRPs subsequently experience a significant decrease in the number of shares held per shareholder. Thus, no‐load DRPs do appear to be successful in broadening a firm's shareholder base.
