A tartan is a patterned cloth consisting of crisscrossed, horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colors that has been found in parts of the world dating back as far as 3,000 B.C. 🪡

4 years ago, @NCState Official Tartan was presented at the #TextileBowl by Wilson College of Textiles alum Kathleen Kelly. Kathleen created the pattern for the NC State’s tartan and registered it in the Scottish Registry of Deeds, the official Scottish Register of tartans. 📜

The coveted Textile Bowl trophy has been passed back and forth between NC State and Clemson for decades. 🏆 The silver bowl sits on top of a wooden platform that is adorned with the dates and scores of every bowl game. On the platform's base we can also see cool vintage logos from both of the universities.

The rivalry game between the two schools has its roots in their shared relationship to the textiles industry. ⚙️🧵🔬🧪

The Textile Bowl has represented the textile industry's historic importance in the economic development of North Carolina and South Carolina for the last 5 decades. 🏟🏈

The rivalry's name started in 1981 and is derived from the fact that Clemson and NC State had two of the largest university-level textile schools in the world until Clemson’s removal of their school in 2013.

🗓 Come hang out at the Textiles Alumni and Friends Tailgate before kick off of the 40th Annual Textile Bowl! This tailgate is sponsored by the NC Textile Foundation.

The research projects were a part of the 10-week long Textile Engineering, Chemistry and Science Research Experience for Undergraduates that gave students the opportunity to learn in a research environment and insight into the life of a graduate student. 🥼🔬🧪

20 years ago, the country was enthralled in what would be remembered as one of the darkest days of recent U.S. history. We salute all of the first responders who answered the call to save and protect their fellow Americans. We also remember those whose lives were lost during the attacks. You are gone but not forgotten. 🇺🇸❤️
