By Stuart Hall<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Charles S. Heilig III was a little boy, he would accompany his father to work on an occasional Saturday. The young Heilig became fascinated by the manufacturing process which he first experienced at that furniture factory in High Point with his father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI always knew I wanted to be part of making something,\u201d he said. \u201cEven when I was really young it just felt like this is where my home should be.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig\u2019s vision has formed an integral part of his success story. Today, he serves as president and chief executive officer of Parkdale<\/a>, a global leader in yarn manufacturing, and president of the North Carolina Textile Foundation<\/a>. NC State’s Wilson College of Textiles<\/a> provided a path for Heilig to become the leader he is today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig, 50, who grew up in Greensboro and whose \u201cfather, sister and a whole series of uncles and cousins\u201d attended NC State, was sold on following in their footsteps when Lennie Barton, who at the time served in the College of Textiles, spoke to Heilig\u2019s high school physics class. Barton talked about the various job and scholarship opportunities NC State offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig set off on a \u201cfive-year plan\u201d from 1987-1992. While in Raleigh, Heilig saw the effects that a weak economy was having on the job market in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The textiles school was touting a high percentage of job placements and attractive starting salaries, so he transferred into the Wilson College of Textiles.<\/p>\n\n\n

“It really warms my heart every minute that I am able to work to the benefit of the Wilson College of Textiles, because the college gave me assistance when I needed it, and I am here because they did. I know it and I owe it back.”<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thought, \u2018Wait a minute here. This is my hope,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cI didn\u2019t have any money and grad school was not an option. I had to get into the market and quickly become self sustaining. The textile school provided a path for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the other parts of his college years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt could not have been any better,\u201d said Heilig before rattling off a litany of involvements that included being a resident advisor, playing intramural athletics, serving in student government and being a member of Delta Sigma Phi fraternity. \u201cIf there was something to do or be a part of, I signed up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig earned a Bachelor of Science degree, but the process may have been more fruitful than the end result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe College of Textiles prepared you for a career,\u201d he said. \u201cNot only do they educate you, but they also line up internships in different facets of the textile industry or international study abroad programs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The placement office helped Heilig secure an initial job with Sara Lee Knit Products, which is now known as Hanesbrands<\/a>. He later moved on to Gastonia-based Parkdale Inc. where he has held various positions over a 25-year period, from plant manager to executive leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearly a decade ago, Heilig\u2019s mentor, Anderson D. Warlick, vice chairman and chief operating officer of Parkdale Inc., who is also a former NC Textile Foundation president, imparted a bit of wisdom. Warlick told Heilig that he was at a point in his career where he should give his \u201ctime, talents and treasures back to the people who were important\u201d to him. He asked Heilig to take an active role in the NCTF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig heeded Warlick\u2019s advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an honor,\u201d said Heilig of his time with the NCTF, \u201cbut it really warms my heart every minute that I am able to work to the benefit of the Wilson College of Textiles, because the college gave me assistance when I needed it, and I am here because they did. I know it and I owe it back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heilig and his wife, Christa H. Heilig, have also given back by endowing the Charles S. Heilig III Scholarship. That, too, has come full circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Christmas, the NCTF called Heilig to tell of receiving a letter from one of Heilig\u2019s college friends of nearly 30 years ago. During their time at NC State, Heilig loaned the friend some money \u2014 \u201chundreds, not thousands,\u201d Heilig said \u2014 in a time of need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sender had not forgotten the gesture, writing that he would never be able to repay Heilig\u2019s generosity figuratively, but wanted to start with a gift to the scholarship fund that was 10 times the amount of Heilig\u2019s initial loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sense of paying forward is one reason why Heilig believes the Wilson College of Textiles is well poised for the coming years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think the College of Textiles and the opportunity for textiles in this hemisphere is going to continue to be vast, and broaden. \u2026 And the college will meet the needs of the market,\u201d Heilig said. \u201cThere is no doubt that [Wilson College of Textiles Dean Dr. David Hinks\u2019] strategic plan addresses that very, very well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
