North Carolina State University received a $28 million gift from alumnus Frederick “Fred” Eugene Wilson Jr. and the Wilson family. The gift funds an endowment to support and name NC State’s College of Textiles. Effective immediately the college will be known as the Wilson College of Textiles. The gift is part of the Think and Do the Extraordinary Campaign, a $1.6 billion fundraising effort. It is the largest gift ever made to the college in its 119-year history and makes Wilson College of Textiles only the second named school at NC State.
